Dissonant Species, the first instalment of a new Canadian production by Theatre Gargantua.

An aggressive incident leaves a music professor shaken. When the effects of this unexpected interaction resonate through the professor to those around him each individual begins to question the (dis)harmony of their relationships. Every day we must share the planet with people who have fundamentally different irreconcilable beliefs to our own. How do we find harmony in the dissonance around us?

Dissonant Species takes principles of species counterpoint used in classical Western music composition and uses them as a musical metaphor to decipher and explore the complexities and nuances of human interaction. Vibration harmony and discord become allegories for the inevitable conflicts that erupt between us.

The first instalment of Dissonant Species runs November 15-17 at Factory Theatre 125 Bathurst Street Toronto with a preview on November 14. Find out more information and purchased tickets through the link below.
