SUMMARY:Kiuryaq in Hay River
DESCRIPTION:Presented by \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nA Production By  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nNever whistle at the Northern Lights. They will come down and get you. They will play soccer with your head. They are also ancestors calling you home. Kiuryaq is ‘Aurora Borealis’ in the Western Arctic Inuvialuit language of Inuvialuktun\, in reference to their bright colours. \n\n\n\nKiuryaq is an immersive circumpolar theatre performance that explores our relationship with the Northern Lights. It is a multi-disciplinary piece created in collaboration with sound composers\, digital media artists\, and theatre artists from Indigenous and non-Indigenous peoples of Canada\, Greenland\, Sápmi territory and Alaska.  \n\n\n\nWe follow these northern stories of connection that inspire us through the aurora borealis\, or kiuryaq in Inuvialuktun. These stories – frightening\, spiritual\, epic and playful – are situated in our memories of then and experiences of now. All are held in our vast cosmologies\, converging in ways that could not have imagined when this journey began.  \n\n\n\nKiuryaq is about two siblings born in the North\, an older sister and a younger brother. One is taken down south by a forced adoption and raised with no knowledge of their place of birth\, the other is raised under the Aurora with their grandparents. Under the ancestral connection of the Northern Lights\, choices are made that change both their realities. \n\n\n\nKiuryaq is a transformative performance work which brings the circumpolar region together to share wisdom\, warnings and humour to all those who are curious. In form\, Kiuryaq blends theatre\, with three performers embodying multiple roles; concert\, featuring original music played by a live string quartet; and film\, with expansive\, immersive projections.  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nCreative Team\n\n\n\nProducers: Akpik Theatre & TheaturtleDirector: Reneltta ArlukMusic Director: Carmen BradenWriters: Reneltta Arluk\, Rawdna Carita Eira\, Alon NashmanDramaturgy: Christopher MorrisCultural Envoy: Rawdna Carita EiraPerformers: Julia Ulayok Davis\, Salik Lennert\, Elin OskalChoreographer: Fia GrogonoStage Management: Ashley ReesLighting Design: Itai ErdalCostume & Props Design: Jay HavensComposer | Sound Designer: Carmen BradenLive Performance and Recording: Dior Quartet (Noa Sarid\, Joanne Yesol Choi\, Yuri Santos\, Tobias Elser\, Jacob Clewell\, Caleb Georges) Set Design | Illustrator: Hailey VerbonacVideo Design: Chimerik 似不像Digital Content: Davis Heslep & Barry BilinskyVideo Dramaturgy: Barry BilinskyCollaborating Filmmakers: Riddle Films & Cabin ProductionsImage Design: Rise Frequency Intuitive Graphic Design \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThis event is organized by:

SUMMARY:TOKARA in Hay River
DESCRIPTION:TOKARA was founded in Nagano Prefecture\, Japan\, by Wadaiko Artist Art Lee. The group has become a strong force in the world of Wadaiko (Taiko Drumming) both in Japan and internationally. \n\n\n\nWhile incorporating arrangements of traditional Taiko pieces into their performance\, TOKARA has created an all-new style of Taiko\, where electrifying speed and power meet the group’s own arrangements of movement\, incorporating dance and the circular fluidity of the Chinese martial arts and aikido. \n\n\n\nTOKARA’s new style of Taiko music also brings rhythmic signatures from other cultures around the world to create a jazzy and exciting style of taiko music. TOKARA started its international debut with a six-week coast-to-coast tour of the U.S. and Canada\, followed by a two-month tour in 2005\, both to critical acclaim and sold-out audiences. TOKARA has since performed as the main attraction in many events\, including the Hamanako Hanahaku All-Japan Expo and the Taipei City 120th Anniversary World Music Festival. \n\n\n\nSince the group’s inception\, TOKARA tours three to four times a year in Asia\, the U.S.\, various countries in Europe\, Australia\, and India\, as well as making regular appearances at some of the top Taiko performances all over Japan. \n\n\n\nTOKARA continues the intensive process of continually reinventing new pieces and playing styles in an attempt to further develop the group’s originality. The members of TOKARA also continue to research and study traditional Wadaiko pieces\, and to incorporate arrangements of these pieces into their performances. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nReceive the “Family Pack” discount when adding at least one adult and one youth ticket to your cart.

SUMMARY:Pawakan Macbeth in Hay River
DESCRIPTION:In partnership with  \n\n\n\nA CREE TAKEOVER | BY RENELTTA ARLUKINSPIRED BY THE YOUTH OF FROG LAKE FIRST NATION \n\n\n\nCO-PRODUCTION WITH AKPIK THEATRE \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe groundbreaking Pawâkan Macbeth is Indigenous playwright\, Reneltta Arluk’s reimagining of Shakespeare’s darkest play into Cree history\, legend and cosmology. Set in Plains Cree territory in the 1870s\, before the establishment of First Nations reserves\, Pawâkan Macbeth takes place in a time when First Nations warred with each other and the Canadian Government over territory\, food supplyand trade. Harsh environments brought immense fear\, starvation\, and uncertainty together to awaken the darkest of Cree spirits\, the Wihtiko – an evil being with an insatiable appetite for human flesh. Inspired from stories shared by Indigenous Elders in Frog Lake First Nation following protocol\, Arluk has created a new\,visceral experience of Macbeth; a convergence of Shakespeare’s language\, modern English\, and Cree. As historical wars are waged with the Cree and Nakodaagainst the Blackfoot\, Macikosisân (Macbeth)\, a great Okihcitâw (warrior)\, becomes consumed by the cannibal spirit Wihtiko. He plots with KâwanihotIskwew (Lady Macbeth)\, to kill their Chief\, Okimâw Wîpâstim (Duncan). Pawâkan Macbeth is a terrifying journey through love\, greed\, honor and betrayal\, withtrickster beings that lie like truth. \n\n\n\nFEATURING:Mallory AmiraultJD MontgrandLisa NassonMitch SaddlebackSpencer Streichertčačumḥi – aaron wells \n\n\n\nDirector & Playwright: Reneltta ArlukAssistant Director: Barry BilinskyPlains Cree Language Consultant & Translator:  Darlene AugerPlains Cree Consultant: Jhaik Windy HairCostume Designer: Logan Martin- ArcandSet Designer: Cimmeron MeyerLighting Designer: Brad TrenamanSound Designer: Carmen BradenFight Director: Nathan LoitzTour Technical Director: Cody Clyburn \n\n\n\n\nAkpik Theatre – PAWÂKAN MACBETH\n\n\n\nAkpik Theatre – PAWÂKAN MACBETH\, \nAaron Wells as Macikosisân and Allyson Pratt as Kâwanihot Iskwew\n\n\n\nAkpik Theatre – PAWÂKAN MACBETH\n\n\n\nAkpik Theatre – PAWÂKAN MACBETH\n\n\n\nAkpik Theatre – PAWÂKAN MACBETH\n\n\n\nAkpik Theatre – PAWÂKAN MACBETH\, Aaron Wells as Macikosisân and Joel Montgrand\n\n\n\nAkpik Theatre – PAWÂKAN MACBETH\n\n\n\nAkpik Theatre – PAWÂKAN MACBETH\n\n\n\n\n\n\n*Recommended ages 14+
