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

    Date:

    Sharing is SO MUCH APPRECIATED!

    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.

    Sharing is SO MUCH APPRECIATED!
