Railtown Cultural Eclective, brings The Seven Deadly Sins to their Trier Performance Series at the Orpheum Annex, Thursday, November 14 at 8pm.

The Seven Deadly Sins, is a musical  journey to hell and back, in dance, clown, and circus, depicting the cardinal sins of pride, greed, lust, anger, gluttony, envy and sloth.

The music of Tim Sars is rooted in Vancouver counter cultures, which in nature draw on musical genres from around the world, such as Balkan brass, Calypso and New Orleans Jazz. His sound provides the perfect backdrop to Vancouver’s vibrant performance art community and is the inspiration for this production.

Anna Mayfire’s animated dance depicts anger turning to lust, while sloth and gluttony are presented in the dark humor of Gerardo Avila’s expressive clowning. Lexi von Wonderful and Golden Brian display pride in burlesque. With her suspended silks Leah James makes a circus of greed and envy.

Sars, on reeds and vocals, is joined by Roisin Adams on piano, trumpet and vocals; Jocelyn Waugh on trumpet;  Ross Barrett on tenor sax, Pim van Geffen on trombone, Russell Scholberg on bass, and Jamie Carter on drums.  The interplay between sight and sound makes The Seven Deadly Sins simply heaven.

With the Trier Performance Series, Railtown Cultural Eclective provides a showcase for the talents of Vancouver emerging and established artists. The support of City of Vancouver Theatre Rental Grant Program has made it possible to present the series at Vancouver’s new performance venue, the Orpheum Annex.
