Unite
Three choreographers. Three powerful works. One unforgettable evening of dance.
Indigenous choreographers are reshaping contemporary dance, bringing lived and remembered experience, distinct cultural perspectives, and a deep passion for the art form to the stage. As part of IMPACTfest’s, join us for an evening of dance by some of Canada’s leading Indigenous contemporary choreographers.
On October 28, IMPACTfest brings three remarkable contemporary dance works to the Capitol Theatre in a triple bill exploring ancestry, identity, connection and transformation.
Experience Santee Smith and Kaha:wi Dance Theatre’s cinematic and ritualistic Blood, Water, Earth; the World Premiere of AZURE, a captivating new work by Métis choreographer Jera Wolfe created on the dancers of Atlantic Ballet Atlantique Canada; and Sarah Prosper’s deeply rooted Ps+ke’kn Sqolj, an exploration of multigenerational memory, the body and our relationship with Mother Earth.
From striking imagery and intimate movement to powerful Indigenous perspectives and a brand-new world premiere, this is an evening designed to surprise, move and inspire.
