One Yellow Rabbit

✨ Denise Clarke has a few questions. And if you've seen her work before, you know she's going to ask them with passion.

In Pray This, Denise turns her attention to some of the big questions in life... love, death and the beautiful, baffling mess of being human.

Her newest solo work brings together extraordinary movement, sharp humour and a soulful soundtrack from Halifax's BlackWood Trio. It's thoughtful, funny and unmistakably Denise.

Come see what she's been creating.

🥕 There was good food, good friends, plenty of laughs, and, naturally, a few secrets shared over dessert.

Our Garden Party was a chance to gather with the people who have helped make One Yellow Rabbit what it is: the artists who take the risks, the audiences who follow along, and the friends, supporters and community who have believed in the work for more than four decades. It was a wonderful afternoon to pause, celebrate what we've built together, and look ahead to the adventures still to come.

And there was something new to celebrate, too. Guests were among the first to get a glimpse of the OYR Ensemble’s next production, now taking shape behind the scenes. We’re not quite ready to reveal all the details, but we can tell you that this new work will find its way to the High Performance Rodeo in January 2027.

For those who have been following the Ensemble for years, this is a little first look at what comes next. For everyone else, consider it your invitation to get curious.

More coming soon! 👀

Wait? What!

That's the thing about following your curiosity. You don't always know where it's going to take you. Maybe it's a new artist, a strange idea, or a performance you can't quite explain. Maybe it's simply a night that unfolds in a way you never expected. Whatever you find, we think a little uncertainty makes for a pretty good evening.

Curious? Stay tuned.

What’s next?

💛 High Performance Rodeo | Curated by One Yellow Rabbit
🗓️ January 15 to February 6, 2027

Some performances stay with you long after the curtain falls.

Maybe it was a moment you still can’t explain, a scene you think about years later, a line you still quote, or a show you were talking about all the way home.

We want to know: What’s the most unforgettable performance you’ve ever experienced? It doesn’t have to be ours (although we’d love to hear those stories too. 😉). Tell us about the show that made you laugh, gasp, question everything or see something differently.

We’re always curious about the moments that stick. 🐇

A city is so much more than just its skyline.

It’s a tapestry woven by the people who come together to create, take risks, ask tough questions and support one another.

For over 40 years, One Yellow Rabbit has been the heart of this community, uniting artists, audiences, volunteers, donors and dreamers through bold artistic experiences that ignite dialogue, foster discovery and make Calgary a truly vibrant place to call home.

As the faces, stories, and stages evolve, fresh voices will enrich the conversation, and new ideas will emerge.

Yet, our core belief remains steadfast: curiosity matters, artists need the freedom to dream and a city flourishes when creativity is nurtured.

Thank you for being an integral part of this journey. For every laugh shared, every conversation sparked, every standing ovation and every surprise along the way.

The next chapter is still unfolding, and we can’t wait to explore it with you.

Curious?

Take a good look at this photo.

Now imagine you walked into the theatre and this was the very first thing you saw...

What's happening here?

Or maybe a better question is...

What do you think happened five seconds before this moment?

Tell us your theory in the comments. Funny, thoughtful, completely outrageous? We're here for all of it.

We'll be reading every one.

You've probably made at least one of these faces.

The laugh that catches you off guard.

The moment you lean forward because you have no idea what's about to happen.

The applause that starts before you've even had time to process what you just experienced.

And, of course, the conversation afterwards, the one that somehow lasts all the way home.

Those moments have always been at the heart of One Yellow Rabbit. Not because every show is the same, but because every show invites you to experience something worth talking about.

🤔 Which reaction do you recognize most?

🤩 Or better yet… what was the show that made it happen?

You know the feeling.

It starts with a little curiosity.

Then suddenly you're sitting in a theatre thinking, "I've never seen anything quite like this, and I love it!"

If you've been along for the ride over the years, you know One Yellow Rabbit has always had a soft spot for the unexpected. Boundary-pushing performances. Music that stays with you. Big ideas. Late-night conversations.

If this sounds like your kind of fun, thanks for finding your way down the rabbit hole with us.

What's the most unforgettable One Yellow Rabbit show you've ever experienced? We'd love to hear your story. 🐇
