With "Blizzard," FLIP Fabrique takes you on a crazy, poetic and gentle journey in the dead of winter and invites you to lose yourself in a moment of complete wonder. With performers at the peak of their art and outstanding visual poetry, "Blizzard" promises to blow away everything in its path.

What if winter has taken over?
Not just outside, in the streets and in the fields,
But also in the houses, in the bedrooms,
Underneath our clothes, and even right into our hearts.
Everything, absolutely everything, buried under the snow,
Obliterated by a white-out.
The north wind freezes time as it flows over us.
Would it be a catastrophe?
Or a chance to start over,
To fix our mistakes?
A new blank page
In the shape of a blizzard.

Purple banner reads: "Make Your Own" in bold white font with "Cabaret, Changemakers, Overture Presents and Up Close" surrounding.
