Storytelling Series returns for its final show of 2024, celebrating the power and depth of Indigenous storytelling!This year’s lineup promises to inspire and captivate with a short play, musical performance, and documentary, each showcasing the immense talent and creativity within Indigenous storytelling.
Be there for the premiere of "The Curse of Stolen Seeds", a powerful new play by Poet Laureate Jillian Morris. This deeply moving story follows Evelyn and her estranged daughter Autumn as they face their painful past and embark on a journey of healing and reconciliation, brought to life by talented local actors.
Elder Jeff Monague will grace the stage with a soulful musical performance, sharing wisdom and songs that connect the themes of ghosts and the life-giving spirit of stories.
Dive into the supernatural with an exciting episode of “Ghost Hunters of the Grand River”, where a Six Nations team investigates paranormal activity at a community theatre. It’s a thrilling blend of culture and the unexplained that will leave you on the edge of your seat!
Finally, enjoy an exclusive conversation between host Jillian Morris and cast member/ghost hunter Jay Smith, offering behind-the-scenes insights into the artistry of the production and the powerful role of storytelling in addressing today’s most pressing issues.
