<p>An End-of-a-Lifetime Immersive Journey into Purgatory Paradise</p><p>Guests of 'The Last Resort' were passengers of a cruise ship that sailed into the Bermuda Triangle in 1971 and was never heard from again.</p><p>You arrive at a destination that wasn’t on the itinerary – ‘The Last Resort’ is lavishly appointed and seems to promise endless tropical luxuries, but you'll quickly come to discover there’s no obvious way to leave. </p><p>Your every need will be tended to by the mysterious staff: Mr. Temperance, the host at the Hereafter Bar, the Queen of Cups, a winsome mixologist always ready to lend an ear, Death, the beautiful showgirl who stars at the Limbo Lounge, and many other friendly faces. Judgement. The Magician. The Lovers. The Devil.</p><p>Seize the opportunity to embark on our mind-altering journey through tropical splendour to your final reward. Linger in the moonlight with a haunted lover, attend a sultry cabaret performance with Death as the star, cherish a private moment with a magical guide, take part in an eerie game show, or dance in the arms of a doomed storyteller whispering secrets into your ear.</p><p>Welcome.</p><p>The Last Resort is an immersive theatrical experience as imagined by the award-winning mind behind such Vancouver-based immersive shows as 'Slumber Here', 'Alice in Glitterland', and 'The Neverland Night Circus', alongside a team of professional artists, writers, dancers, actors, magicians, costumers, and themed entertainment designers.  Join us on this one-of-a-kind journey through a purgatory paradise exploring themes of change, choice, mortality, and growth. Weaving the Tarot arcana throughout the story allows audience members to interact with their fates directly, and guests are invited to choose their level of participation, denoted by a colored lei placed around their necks as they're welcomed into the Hereafter.</p><p>The two-hour experience leads audience members through an exploration of death and the process of self-actualization as seen through the eyes of guests of a tropical party resort in the early 1970s. The story unfolds through an awe-inspiring blend of sensual choreography, vintage exotica soundtrack, three themed bars with cocktails crafted just for The Last Resort, and several rooms of lushly-detailed atmosphere.</p><p>Every stay at The Last Resort is a unique experience, as every guest is encouraged to explore, observe, follow and interact with the resort staff as they please. Partake in resort activities, eavesdrop on private conversations and intimate moments, or linger at the Hereafter Bar and let the old souls spin you a tall tale or two. It’s your Afterlife.</p><p>thelastresortvancouver.com</p><p>fairlith.com</p>

Guests of this End-of-a-Lifetime immersive trip into Purgatory Paradise are cruise ship passengers lost in the Bermuda Triangle in 1971.

At the Waldorf

<p>In its 31st year, and as popular today as ever, one of this country’s most joyous annual traditions returns to BC this December 1-22, 2024 as part of a 9-city tour. Known for sold-out houses and standing ovations, this ensemble is a “must-see” ticket on the holiday calendar. Winter Harp is a joyous concert experience that has captured the spirit of the season, and audience’s hearts, for over three decades. On stage, Winter Harp’s outstanding musicians and singers, clad in beautiful medieval attire, perform a collection of music that ranges from familiar carols to Celtic, medieval and world tunes. At the theatre performances, magical backdrops of cathedral and snow set a stage for the golden Celtic and classical harps, drums, tambourines, temple bells, flutes, and an assortment of beautiful ancient and rare instruments, including the ethereal-sounding <em>bass</em> <em>psaltery</em> (the only one like it in the world), the <em>organistrum</em> (an early form of the hurdy-gurdy) and the Swedish <em>nyckelharpa</em>. </p><p>Don’t miss this journey of pure magic! Winter Harp — Christmas begins here.</p>

Glorious music and song combine with festive  stories to wrap you snugly in the Christmas spirit. Winter Harp --Christmas begins here.
