The dynamic duo behind Dual Minds are getting set to launch the Vancouver premiere of their new production Any Night at the new Culture Lab at the Cultch, launching its new season. Daniel Arnold and Medina Hahn are two of my absolute favourite theatre artists in town, they are wonderful actors and humans, and began Dual Minds with the mandate to create and produce their own original work.
They met in 2000 at the University of Alberta and created their first piece, Tuesdays and Sundays, to showcase their talents, which turned into such a great success they toured it around the world for seven years straight. Any Night is their sophomore effort, and has received rave reviews from its showing at Summerworks last year and from The Belfry in Victoria earlier this year. They’ve tweaked the script a bit in the interim and are ready to show it to their home town audience.
It’s showing concurrently with my play Gift of Screws, but there’s no way I’m going to miss this one. Somehow. Here’s Daniel and Medina talking about the piece, and the promo video for it. Have a look-see…
