School Performance: Kaha:wi presents Medicine Bear

CURRENTLY NO SEATS AVAILABLE.

Through whimsical music, dance and storytelling, Medicine Bear weaves into one magical narrative traditional Iroquoian stories: how the Bear Clan came to be known as the “Keeper of the Medicines” and the hunter who discovered the gift of healing.  Following oral tradition practices, Medicine Bear teaches virtues of compassion, thankfulness and respect for nature in a way that is playful and though provoking for young and family audiences.

The stage glows with warmth as characters dance along a glistening brook, pick wild fruits, and hunt with the Deer. Stylized video projections highlight dazzling aspects of the narrative: the forest setting, meadow of deer, forest animals and the personified plant spirits.

Medicine Bear entertains while expanding understanding and appreciation for the Arts and encourages the sharing of First Nations culture for future generations.
