Let us tell you a story…
Join Gwaandak Theatre for our 15th Edition of Indigenous Summer Play Readings! This Season, we are proud to be sharing readings of a new script in development - Ämbäya Shäw/Big Auntie Energy - written by Yukon First Nation playwright Christine Genier (Ta’an Kwäch’än Council) with presentations taking place throughout the Yukon. This annual summer tour creates opportunities for emerging theatre artists and promotes stronger community connections, all while showcasing Indigenous scripts - including new and developing works - to local audiences. We invite you to experience this story with us!
