Synopsis
Audiences are invited on an odyssey into the mystery and splendour of Blindness in this multidisciplinary world premiere. RAINBOW ON MARS is Pan’s Labyrinth-meets-The Matrix in a love story inspired by Healey’s own journey into Blindness. It follows a young woman hurled into an upside-down world of fabulists, fabricators and fatalists as she discovers it’s not only her vision that isn’t what it seems. (outsidethemarch.ca)
