Miigis: Underwater Panther

Canadian Stage presents a Red Sky Performance production

Directed and Choreographed by Sandra Laronde
in collaboration with the Performers

Canada’s leading company of contemporary Indigenous performance returns!

Miigis: Underwater Panther is about a prophecy in which the Anishinaabe should move west or perish. It is about the remarkable journey from the Atlantic Ocean to the Great Lakes as we explore catalysts for movement, water trade routes, Anishinaabe archetypes, and mystery beings on a journey from salt to fresh water.

Utilizing architectural and iconic Indigenous forms, Miigis reveals the power of nature, and the rise of matriarchy through dance, theatrical innovation, and a fusion of athleticism, music, and film.

You can’t do better than Red Sky Performance, exemplary and magical. – NOW Magazine
