ABOUT CANDYBONES Theatre
Candy Bones Theatre is an innovative Theatre for Young Audiences company which devises and tours immersive, and original theatre for young audiences.
Artistic director Candice Roberts is a Canadian theatre artist and 5th generation settler and artist based on the ancestral territories of the Coast Salish Peoples, including the territories of the xʷməθkwəy̓əm (Musqueam), Skwxwú7mesh (Squamish), and Səl̓ílwətaʔ/Selilwitulh (Tsleil-Waututh) Nations.
Her original works encompass physical theatre, music, and clown to investigate the humor and heartbreak of our social and human conditions. As a somatic practitioner and an avid researcher of creativity, her works explore the connections between self-expression, mental health, and community.
“Every child is an artist. The problem is how to remain an artist once we grow up.”- Pablo Picasso.
Her international touring shows include award-winning solo shows; LARRY, a “daring, provocative and hilarious” gender-bending feminist comedy, IDEAS BOBERT, a ridiculous family show in the likes of Charlie Chaplin and OOPSIE, a fun and clever physical comedy about mistakes!
