DUSTY FLOWER SHOP TO GET AN UPGRADE
We are re-decorating, re-vitalizing, re-organizing, re-painting and eventually renovating! Artistic Director Kat Single-Dain has been working hard during the pandemic on plans to improve every aspect of the studio theatre in preparation for re-opening and has successfully raised all the funds needed for a complete upgrade! Here at the Dusty Flowerpot, we don't get bored, we get busy!
The studio improvement team at the moment is Kat Single-Dain, Rhys Lillo, Michael Undem and Jennifer Little. We've also had many other hands on the process, including Melody Mangler and Devo Faber. Thank-you to all and the work continues....probably until the new year 2022. It takes a lot of time to get plans and permits properly in place. We expect the studio to re-open at some point after Parade of Lost Souls, and will keep you up to date. As such, we are not currently taking any studio rentals. However, you CAN expect a rip-roaring opening party or series of parties to re-open.
Funding received from and HUGE Thanks to Canadian Heritage, City of Vancouver, and BC Arts Council.

DEDICATED TO CREATING AND SUPPORTING ORIGINAL WORK OF PHYSICAL THEATRE ON STAGES BOTH TRADITIONAL AND SITE SPECIFIC
Dusty Flowerpot Cabaret was formed in 2006 on a rainy winter's night in a Strathcona, Vancouver art studio, when a group of local artists met over red wine and blue cheese and decided to collaborate.
The Dusty Flowerpot Cabaret is a non-profit society dedicated to creating and supporting original work of physical theatre in stages both traditional and site specific. Since 2013, we operate from our studio The Dusty Flower Shop which is also available for rentals.
The DFC creates large scale musicals, small scale roving acts, and festivals. On a regular basis the DFC produces the well loved and community involved Parade of Lost Souls, a monthly "Third Thursday Cabaret" and a weekly "Clown Gym" work out for anyone who has clown or physical theatre equivalent training. All of these events are offered by donation. Please contact Kat Single-Dain, Artistic Director since 2013, to get involved with our season of activities, as there are many many opportunities!
