Time flies when you’re having fun — and it’s already been five years since NAC Indigenous Theatre’s inaugural season in 2019. There’s certainly lots to celebrate: telling fascinating and important stories on one of national theatre’s biggest stages, overcoming a global pandemic and not to mention the commitment to uplifting Indigenous voices in the arts community.
Since the inaugural year of Indigenous Theatre at the NAC began five years ago, programming for the 2024-25 year promises stories across nations and communities focused on resiliency, humour and celebrating our matriarchs. Apt613 sat down with the Artistic Director of the NAC Indigenous Theatre Department, Kevin Loring, to talk more about what we can expect from the performances this season.
NAC Indigenous Theatre presents Little Red Warrior and His Lawyer, from director and Governor General’s Award-winning playwright Kevin Loring of the Nlaka’pamux Nation: a wickedly funny satire about power, politics, and procreation.
The National Arts Centre’s new Indigenous Theatre company has unveiled its inaugural season.
There’s a lot to take in from the recent announcement of more than 100 shows.
The Pipeline Project is playing in the undercurrents festival at Arts Court Theatre until February 10, 2018.
The 8th undercurrents festival is running from February 7–17 at Arts Court Theatre and the National Arts Centre. Tickets cost $20–25 and admission to some shows is on a pay-what-you-can basis.
