11p1p11a is an experiment in movement and time. With four new works being presented by What Lab at vastly different times of day (11pm, 1pm, and 11am), Vancouver-based artists Ileanna Cheladyn, Emmalena Fredriksson, Jamie Robinson, and Zahra Shahab will share with audiences a process that subverts traditional performance structures, be it by moonlight or sunlight.

THAW

Solo created and performed by Zahra Shahab
thaw is a solo in progress about the liminal spaces between identities. It is a search for morphological transformation in between the characters that are surfacing in my body. It is about the natural alchemy that occurs when I hold a part of myself long enough.
Accessibility Info
What Lab is located at 1814 Pandora Street. There is no dedicated parking, only street parking. The venue is located on the second floor up one flight of stairs, but there is a ground level accessible entrance through the back of the building. Seating is typically informal, and will include some combination of chairs, floor seating, couches, and cushions. There is one single-occupancy, gender-inclusive washroom. The washroom is not big enough for larger style wheelchairs to completely turn around in while the door is open. We are a trans-inclusive space.
