FRIDAY 8 SEPTEMBER AT 7:30PM

PARTRIDGE HALL AT FIRSTONTARIO PERFORMING ARTS CENTRE

Homelands is a multimedia performance created by Kaha:wi Dance Theatre. Braiding earthy and cinematic media, sound design and performance, Homelands places Yethi’nihstenha (many womxn) within the homelands and waters of Kahnyen’kehàka territory / enhsenonhstate’ of upper state New York and around Ohswé:ken (Six Nations of the Grand River). Onkwehón:we (people of the way of forever) have always been and will continue to be tied to our lands and water and our kinship connections on A’nowarà:ke (Turtle Island).  

The performance is an immersive multimedia concert featuring an interplay between video projection, live dance and music. 

Founded in 2005 by Artistic Director Santee Smith, Kaha:wi Dance Theatre is one of Canada’s preeminent dance companies.

“Homelands is vibrant, compelling and well-conceived. It is an impressive technical and artistic achievement. Perhaps most surprising is just how intimate and immersive it feels. Smith’s evocative movement allows us to forget that theatrical barrier at the front of the stage, allows us fully into the environments depicted.” – Istvan Dugalin, Istvan Reviews

“The choreography is a richly textured blend of gesture and bodily movements that seem to come from some deep inner energy source” – Toronto Star
