From award-winning director and choreographer Igor Dobrovolskiy, and multidisciplinary artist Nipahtuwet Naka Wespahtuwet (Possesom) Paul, Pisuwin is a first ever Wolastoq contemporary story-ballet set to the soaring music of Polaris Prize and Juno award-winning composer Jeremy Dutcher.
Based on a Wolastoq tale, this multidisciplinary piece reflects on the current state of dis-ease in our world, illuminating a path to wholeness and rebalance. The project features eight dancers and blends Indigenous storytelling and ballet, redefining this classical form for a diverse, savvy, and contemporary audience.
