Thaddeus Phillips’ Center-supported visual theater work A Billion Nights on Earth plays at Harbourfront Centre’s international children’s festival in Toronto. Inspired by pop-up storybooks, Phillips says A Billion Nights on Earth was "created with a child-like logic, where ideas and images don't always connect in a normal way, and fantasy roams freely away from linear reality.” Originally developed with Center support, the play was created in collaboration with visual artist Steven Dufala and composer Juan Gabriel Turbay and debuted at FringeArts during the 2017 Fringe Festival.
