SUMMARY:The Nutcracker
DESCRIPTION:Bella Dance Academy presents The Nutcracker\, a timeless holiday tradition for the whole family! It’s Christmas Eve at the Silberhaus residence\, and excitement runs high as last minute preparations are made. Guests begin to arrive to celebrate the holiday with Clara and her family. Arriving late in the midst of the celebration is Drosselmeyer\, Clara’s mysterious uncle. He entertains everyone with magic tricks and mechanical dolls. Drosselmeyer then presents Clara with a wooden nutcracker soldier. Her brother Fritz feels slighted and becomes jealous. He tries to take the nutcracker from Clara and in the struggle\, the nutcracker is broken. Clara is devastated\, but Drosselmeyer mends the nutcracker. As the children grow weary the guests depart\, and Drosselmeyer disappears as mysteriously as he had arrived. Clara carefully places her beloved nutcracker under the Christmas tree before the family retires to bed. That night\, Clara tiptoes back to the Christmas tree and falls asleep next to the wooden Nutcracker doll. Once the clock strikes midnight\, the magic begins! \n\n\n\nJoin Bella Dance Academy this holiday season and experience the magic of this timeless holiday classic\, The Nutcracker. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThis event is organized by:

SUMMARY:World After Dark
DESCRIPTION:Such a beautifully evocative mix of dance\, theatre and poetry. Dana Lafarga\, RBC\n\n\n\nWorld After Dark is a new\, Dora Mavor Moore Award-nominated production by Shannon Litzenberger Contemporary Dance. It explores the erosion of our relationship to night\, inspired by Christopher Dewdney’s popular book Acquainted with the Night: Excursions through the world after dark. From the three stages of nightfall to the science of the cosmos\, from the birth of nightlife to the empire of dreams\, from the biology of nocturnal creatures to the mythology of the night sky\, World After Dark takes us on an epic voyage through the mysteries of night\, inviting us to reclaim the night – a metaphor for the sensual\, the embodied\, and the feminine. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nA New Multi-Media Dance Theatre Experience\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBEHIND THE WORK\n\n\n\n\n\nA choreographer\, dancer\, producer\, director\, and artsblog facilitator\, Shannon Litzenberger is known for creating live performance experiences at the intersection of forms. Rooted in dance\, Litzenberger’s innovative collaborations come to life in conversation with theatre\, literary and visual arts. Her perspective is decidedly feminist\, philosophical\, and socially conscious. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nYour work brought me back to the wintry dark skies in the northern part of Canada during a blackout. It was like seeing inside myself. Yvonne Ng\, Artistic Director\, d:mic festival\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThis event is organized by:

SUMMARY:Johnny Cole - Meet me at The Rex in Inuvik
DESCRIPTION:Celebration of his Metis Roots\n\n\n\nFor fifty years\, Norman Glowach has been playing music in Yellowknife. He started playing the drums\, but he also sings and plays guitar. Growing up in Yellowknife\, Norm has been fortunate to play many styles of music. At an early age\, he played in school bands and stage bands. Professionally\, he’s played old time music\, fiddle music\, country music\, rock & roll\, jazz and blues. These musical experiences all come out in the music he writes and records. He has run his studio\, Spiritwalker Productions\, for over 30 years in downtown Yellowknife. Norm credits the driving force behind his persona Johnny Cole and the musical Meet Me at the Rex to be the pictures and stories of his family’s history. Norman started Meet Me at the Rex eleven years ago when he began searching for ancestors on his mother’s side. At that time\, he was working at the NWT Archives. This gave him an understanding of how to access data from the various levels of archives in Canada. As information and images came forward about his ancestors\, songs started to come to him. At that point\, he didn’t have the idea of creating a production containing these songs – he was just trying to understand his roots. He began to understand his ancestors’ role in the development of Canada.  \n\n\n\nIn his search\, Norm was able to find French and Irish roots in the Red River Colony who mixed with Indigenous peoples\, creating the Métis who populated Western Canada. As the show was coming together\, long-time friends came forward to give him direction. One friend told him the roots he was writing about had a common theme: a story that was similar to that of many other Métis in our country. This gave focus to the project and has been a theme in shaping this show. Norm’s family roots run deep in Canada. Over the years\, the branches stretched to Yellowknife. The production is called Meet Me at the Rex as an homage to Norman’s grandparents\, who were the owners of this popular cafe from 1941 -1966. The Rex was a meeting place and home to many stories of how his family came to Yellowknife. He chose the 1950s time period to tell the story as this was a significant era for the Café. Norm has said\, “At times\, I’ve felt like my ancestors were guiding me in the writing of the songs\, the searching for information\, and are present during the live productions.”  \n\n\n\nCome on in\, sit down\, and have some coffee and pie. Meet me at the Rex. \n\n\n\nInuvik PerformanceNorman Glowach – Johnny ColeDave Martineau – Guitar and VocalsPaul Martineau – Drums and VocalsPat Braden – Bass and VocalsLaura Vinson – VocalsKaren Shepard – Fiddle and Vocals \n\n\n\n\n\n\n*Family Package Adult $15\, Youth $5 \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThis event is organized by:
