Presenter Testimonials
Vox Lumiere is an emotional rollercoaster, a fast-paced 95 minute pop rock extravaganza that delivers a fitting homage to the original film. The audience loved it!
Corby Skinner
Director
Alberta Bair Theater
An opera for our modern times where music from the 21st century marries perfectly with the images filmed in the early 20th century. It’s an original and compelling work and the audience was riveted throughout the 93 minutes.
We’re thrilled to have Vox Lumiere return next year to present a world-premiere of The Hunchback of Notre Dame.
