    Yonnhe’ón:we: Indigenous Art Series Call for Artists

    Date:

    Collingwood, ON [28 August 2024] – The Yonnhe’ón:we Indigenous Arts Series returns to Simcoe Street Theatre on Thursday, November 14th, 2024, featuring a dynamic blend of music, discussion, film, and theatre, honouring the power and  life-giving spirit of story.

    A highlight of this year’s event is the production of the short play, “The Curse of Stolen Seeds,” written by event host and Poet Laureate, Jillian Morris. The play delves into themes of reconciliation and healing as it follows the journey of an estranged mother and daughter, Evelyn and Autumn, as they confront the ghosts of the past to uncover whether truth can lead them to reconciliation.

    The Yonnhe’ón:we team is actively seeking Indigenous actors from or near the South Georgian Bay area to bring these compelling characters to life. We are casting for the following roles:
    •    Evelyn (lead): Indigenous Female, ages 46-55
    •    Autumn (lead): Indigenous Female, ages 32-39
    •    Sam: Indigenous Male, ages 32-45

    This call is open to non-union actors who are available for routine rehearsals in Collingwood and the surrounding area from late September until the opening day on November 14th, 2024. These are paid roles, reflecting our commitment to honoring the talent and dedication of participating artists.

    Please submit an expression of interest to Jillian Morris, [email protected], including the role you are interested in playing and any experience you might have by September 20th, 2024

    Yonnhe’ón:we is dedicated to amplifying Indigenous voices and stories. We are excited to bring this powerful narrative to the stage. Join us in celebrating the rich tradition of Indigenous storytelling.

    VIDEO: 張哲瀚Zhang Zhehan 紀錄片《八月》

    《八月》是中國演員張哲瀚首次擔任導演的紀錄片,2024年4月14日上線。 該片記錄了張哲瀚在2021年8月突遇網路風暴,演藝人生頃刻被顛倒後的一次自我療愈之旅。 當舞臺與燈光不再,當事業與生活被網路上的不實資訊和惡意扭曲震碎,張哲瀚選擇在兩年後的8月,以自己熱愛的方式向著真實的世界重新出發。從香格里拉到拉薩的騎行之路上,他遇見雪山和冰川,遇見草木牛羊,遇見許多個普通而動人的面孔;他傾聽天地之聲,傾聽陌生人的故事,也傾聽內心的痛和愛。 曾經的8月還未終結,以後的8月依然會來。而這一個《八月》意義非常。 #zhangzhehan_super3 #張哲瀚 #張哲瀚八月 #紀錄片八月 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gLwMG6XoJ34&t=11s
