In their Canadian debut, Indigenous Enterprise explores traditional dances passed on from their elders and reimagined for a new crop of award-winning performers. The Phoenix, Arizona based troupe combines dance and filmmaking, using projected animations to prelude the origin story of each traditional dance as it is performed. Their full-length production Indigenous Liberation is as much storytelling as it is dance, with messaging that is at once powerful and uplifting.

Explosively jubilant movements are enhanced by the dancers' colourful regalia and embellished with intricate beadwork, quillwork and featherwork. The aesthetic is not only spellbinding, but each detail is intentional, holding deep significance and meaning within Indigenous culture and traditions.

Choreographed and performed by seven different renowned Indigenous artists, this dynamic programme highlights a diverse array of pow wow dances to inspire and heal. Founder of Indigenous Enterprise Kenneth Shirley hopes, “you all enjoy this presentation as much as we enjoyed making it.â€
