The Glenbow Museum will present the North American premiere of The Gray Rabbit, in association with the High Performance Rodeo.

Taking Shakespeare – One Yellow Rabbit (Calgary, Alberta )
One of the major highlights of the festival will be One Yellow Rabbit’s world premiere presentation of John Murrells’ new play Taking Shakespeare - performed by One Yellow Rabbit’s Denise Clarke along with playwright himself, John Murrell. Taking Shakespeare is the story of sixty-seven year old Prof and twenty-four year old Murph, randomly brought together by the unlikely agent of William Shakespeare himself. The connection of all three shakes up their lives through comedy, tragedy and a hunger for human understanding - which all three of them share.

New Zealand’s Silo Theatre Productions brings the award winning No.2 to the Rodeo. The matriarch of a Fijian family living in Auckland wants a large feast.
