Afghanistan: Requiem for a Generation


  • Arts Commons 205 8 Avenue Southeast Calgary, AB, T2G 0K9 Canada (map)

Jeffrey Ryan’s powerful and haunting work, Afghanistan: Requiem for a Generation returns to Calgary for the first time since its highly acclaimed 2012 premiere, commemorating the end of Canada’s combat mission in Afghanistan. With texts by Suzanne Steele, Canada’s first War Poet, the work chronicles and pays tribute to the lives torn apart and brought together by war.

Cantare was thrilled to be a part of the world premiere in 2012. We are so excited to be bringing this masterwork back to Calgary.
