A play about a spaceman, a whale and you… Lost In Place was developed through a brand new program initiated by the Vancouver Fringe Festival and The Only Animal Theatre Company. The Onsite Program was an intensive course in the individual creation of a site-specific performance. Staged under The Big Yellow Crane on Granville Island, the show ended up becoming a whimsical experiment in audience interaction and a modern fairy tale for adults. Under twinkling christmas lights and a backdrop of False Creek high-rises, audiences giggled and were delightfully reminded of the quirks and challenges of humanity through the eyes of two unlikely creatures.

“A wide-eyed Soulstein proves his improvising chops. Never does he break character. The caped protagonist appears authentically bewildered by all things Earthly. Come prepared for interactivity. Standing room only."

"If there is one show you need to see, it's Lost In Place! The story, costumes, set, improvising, crowd interactions and characters make it a perfect show. We love Seth and Martha and can’t wait to see them again!"
