MainStage / King’s Theatre

Indigenous artists are changing the way we look at dance. Driven by their passion for the artform and their remembered experience, they are revolutionizing movement, reflecting their traditions and creating new dance styles in stunning ways. They give us their own stories with breathtaking performance that offers the power to unite and heal. We are thrilled to be able to present some of the finest indigelous choreographers and dancers in Canada on the FODAR MainStage this season.
