The olivia Project – Thursday, May 17th
Named after a former panel member who was said to be able “to do everything,” the olivia Project is back this May 17th for the third time!
And just what might that be, you ask? Read on.
The olivia Project pairs young artists from different disciplines, and gives them three weeks to create an original, ten-minute piece. The result is a unique, interdisciplinary evening of infinite possibilities, and a small chance of death by creativity. The olivia Project will blow your mind with sheer, undiluted innovation fused into unexpected shapes and sizes.
This year’s theme is TOYBOX! Come dressed as a character from your childhood, or as a toy, or a game, or anything else remotely toy-like! A few suggestions include Mickey Mouse, Zelda, or a game of Twister.
Dress Code: Anything Toy-Like!
This year’s artist groupings:
SynthcakeBoth, from East Van. Both, out of this world. Leroy and the Lovebots is a pop band with a message. Front wonder Leroy and his Lovebots have been a part of the East Vancouver Music scene for the past three years. Leroy combines, singing, dancing, fashion, and theatre into a delicious show to write home about. Through Olivia Project at Ignite Youth Week the fun flashy platform for change was paired with the edgy and hauntingly catchy Synth Cake. Synth Cake, also from East Vancouver, is a five piece Sci-Fi-Delic band. They released their first EP, “Musicophilia” in July 2011, their second , “moulding through the seasons” in May 2012. The Circus-pop of Synth Cake combined with the song and dance of Leroy and the Lovebots is culminated in a fashion forward show to remember here at Ignite Youth Week, Olivia Project. https://www.facebook.com/ |

In Fertile Marbles - Olivia Jo, Clarice, Mark, Michael“We were born from the vast contents of a marble, whatever it may be. The trees all grew, then came everything else. Something bad may have happened, but what eventually happened was that something might have grown from these three colours. Plants do not grow in marbles.” |

David, Savanna, Ander and AliaLost Your Marbles? This eclectic bunch of young artists have lost their marbles and are valiantly trying to regain ownership of said marbles. David, Savanna, Ander and Alia are prepared to go to extreme measures in their quest. This group was thrown together by the Ignite Youth Panel because they come from different disciplines– just to see what they could come up with in a very short time frame. You be the judge—a wildly entertaining plot for the Olivia Project or the youth panel had marbles for brains when they put this bunch together.
