To Wear a Heart So White

Mr. and Mrs. Macbeth: They fuck, they bleed, they die.

Part pilgrimage, part Elizabethan Tragedy, part Church service. Join Leaky Heaven at the Russian Hall for a retelling of our story of conquest and migration. The death of kings, queens, and nature. The birth of real estate.

To Wear a Heart so White is a spatial exploration of the Russian Hall mapped over by Shakespeare and the lost rituals of colonialism. A somber parade for the end times.

Not so much a pushing of boundaries as a licking of them.

Leaky Heaven looks at Macbeth, an English tragedy of power, territory and betrayal in Scotland staged by a predominantly White cast on the unceded territory of three Coast Salish Nations.
