ABOUT THE SHOW

Only a young girl. Witches, munchkins and talking straw men? Sounds like a dream, but not in the land of Oz. Transported to a place of fantasy how will Dorothy ever get home?

Follow the tale as she meets her new friends and each of the group fight their respective demons.
Never forget that you can be whatever you want and do whatever you wish. If you look inside yourself you will find what you are searching for.
Wherever you roam, “Theres No Place Like Home”.

ABOUT THE SHOW

For this years return to Vancouver, Fireworks for Africa will once again deliver an artistic and intricate show. Our focus has never been on delivering the biggest show, but always the best show, so we spend much time in deciding which music to use and in which order the tracks will be placed. Again special attention has been paid to the use of as much colour as possible as well as the amount of different effects used in the display.

ABOUT THE SHOW

In 2008, China presented the Olympics. It was a grandiose experience for all. It also was also a learning experience for China who discovered and experienced the culture of many people around the world. We transferred this experience in this show. Through the looking glass is an interpretation of our understanding of these various cultures, ad we finish the show with our own, with a touch of humour.
