by Emily Raine

Phénomena is a new multidisciplinary arts and cultural festival that’s taking over vast tracts of the city’s galleries, theatres and stages over the next week. Rising from the ashes of the discontinued Voix d’Amériques fest (and using their framework, resources and former staff), artistic director D. Kimm has organized a week’s worth of bizarre and compelling entertainment.

Much of the festival’s programming is organized into three categories or series — Magnetic Fields, Turbulences and Conductive Bodies — but there are numerous free and off-site activities planned in addition, the Collective Pourquoi Jamais’ Erika Weisz Disparue, a nightly performance looking at the German illusionist who disappeared in 1933. Oct. 19 – 26, Sala Rossa parking lot (4848 St-Laurent), 7:30 p.m., free, cancelled in case of rain.
