Constellation St. Clair returns in 2010!

Seven projects will  light up the St. Clair and Bathurst neighbourhood on October 2, the night of Scotiabank Nuit Blanche:

The westmost exhibit is All Night I Mourned Myself, at St. Matthew's United Church (729 St. Clair West), features the coffinphone. Lie in a church pew and hear yourself mourned as if at your own funeral!

Next stop, Wychwood Barns (601 Christie Street), for Mirage, a dance performance by Australia's Theatre Direct, exploring the experience of having a phantom limb.

Your Story Begins At The Barns, also at Wychwood Barns (601 Christie) features storytellers, singers, musicians telling folktales...and you as the hero of every tale.

Obsolescence asks: What if an antique upright piano and stereo speakers traded roles? You can also see this adventure in sound art at Wychwood Barns (601 Christie).

Midway from the Barns to Casa Loma Stables, Nora, Leaving Torvald interprets Ibsen's famous scene in film, visual arts, ceramic installation, and -- till midnight -- theatre.

Cabin in the Woods at Casa Loma Stables plays with the iconic image of the log cabin, turning it from a benign retreat into a mist-surrounded house of horrors. Be afraid...

The eastmost project, Under the Surface, wends through the grounds of Spadina Museum (285 Spadina Road), with diorama, installation, digital and other arts.

Near at hand to all, the St. Clair West TTC station is open all night long.
