The Archive of Missing Things is both a performance and a game. Here’s how it works: you sit at a table in a library, with an iPad and a wireless headset, through which a recorded child’s voice guides you. Your screen is a portal into a vast record of objects that have been lost over time. You make your way through the online maze, seeking the dark secret at its centre. But you aren’t alone; there are clues all around you – a live performance is happening quietly in the library. Can you spot where? The library is open to regular patrons, anything could be a clue, but it could also just be ordinary life. 

IACF is delighted to welcome Zuppa Theatre to Torbay for this dynamic site-specific performance experience in the historic Torquay Library building. Zuppa Theatre is one of Canada's leading artist-led contemporary theatre companies based in Halifax, Nova Scotia. Recent works have focused on "ambient drama" projects: experiments with spectatorship to enhance attentiveness to a place’s histories, possible futures and ghosts.

Please note there is a capacity of 30 people for each performance.
