Directed by Karin Randoja

Starring Cliff Cardinal

Cliff Cardinal’s Huff is a wrenching story about how Wind and his brothers cope with the death of their mother and struggle with solvent abuse. Developed in part through The Collaborations - an initiative of Canada’s National Arts Centre English Theatre, Huff is haunting and insightful with appropriately timed comic relief, making for an truly innovative production.
