IndieFest 2026

re:Naissance presents the 7th edition of IndieFest, from November 15 – 21. We invite you to join us for groundbreaking works including the Vancouver Premiere of immersive experience CLOUD BODIES, and a two-night showcase of works in development from re:Naissance’s Convergence Cohort 2026 artists.

Orpheus in UNDERWORLD

Orpheus in UNDERWORLD is the next iteration of our exploration within the Orphean myth that fuses opera, dance, extended reality, motion capture and interactive technologies. This world premiere is co-produced by re:Naissance and Belle Spirale, and was presented in Helsinki, Finland this September 2026 as part of Censored Opera Festival.

Panel 1

La Doriclea: Inter-Acts | Censored Opera Festival

La Doriclea: Inter-Acts, a new commission from Ensemble Nylandia, follows two colliding timelines: in a 17th-century opera, rival warriors fall in love with each other; in the current day, a group of artists survives in dystopian America; music and dance transcend time and weave these worlds closer together until the warrior Doriclea stands face to face with their 21st-century counterpart.
