9th Annual Louis Riel Day - November 15!
Compaigni V'ni Dansi presents the 9th annual Louis Riel Day Celebration on Saturday November 15 at 7:30pm.
This evening celebration honours Louis Riel, an inspiration for the resilience of the Métis nation.
We are delighted to feature Artistic Director, Yvonne Chartrand, in Sara Riel: The Long Journey - a new work by Robin Poitras and Edward Poitras. Sara is a contemporary dance work set within a visual installation and explores the life of Sara Riel, sister to Louis.
Our Louis Riel Métis Dancers will be led by Madelaine McCallum, and will be accompanied by Shaganappi featuring Keith Hill on fiddle and Amy Eustergerling on keyboard.
Please join us for a post show chat with Robin Poitras, choreographer of Sara Riel: The Long Journey.
