About:
Just like the changing tides in the ocean, Mountain Meets Cloud has been faced with ups and downs. Rehersals began in 2019 and when our performance was brought to a halt in 2020, we took the time to nourish and regroup. It has been a gift to be part of this process both physically/remotly after I left Whistler in 2021 and am so grateful our fearless leader Trish never gave up on her vision to bring it all to life. It is an honour to present this long anticipated show with an amazing cast. With love: Sarah-Dawn
