TO THE PORT THEATRE

Cliff Cardinal’s new work examines the relationship between the Indigenous
community and the settlers, showing us what a young and insightful artist from
the Pine Ridge Indian Reservation in South Dakota sees in the aftermath of the
discovery of unmarked graves on the grounds of former residential schools.

Inspired by the romantic classical ballet, Giselle, this ballet blends
the dark elements of the gothic tale of eternal life and resurrection with
the beauty and tragedy of a love story born in death.

What can sound better than a cello? Eight cellos!
This instrument, the closest to the human voice, is one of the few
which carries being multiplied. When played together with others
the beauties of this instrument add up, giving birth to a unique
full and exceptional sound.
