Gateway Theatre is honoured to present the B.C. premiere of Prophecy Fog by award-winning Indigenous artist Jani Lauzon. Prophecy Fog is based on her voyage to the sacred site of Giant Rock in California’s Mojave Desert. For thousands of years, Giant Rock was a spiritual site for Indigenous nations. Today, it’s covered in graffiti and surrounded by broken bottles. In this autobiographical solo play, Jani takes audiences on a deeply moving and intimate journey in search of answers: can a site still be sacred if it has been desecrated?

As the play opens, we encounter a girl in the mountains of B.C. with a pocket full of stones, the rainbow warriors’ prophecy, and a mysterious inscription that obscures our past. “We come from the stars, we are star people.” Through the 80-minute performance, audiences will be taken on a beautiful and profound journey about our relationships with land, family, and sacred spaces.
