Miigis: Underwater Panther is inspired by the formidable odyssey of the Anishinaabe along the water routes from the Atlantic shores to the Great Lakes, moving from salt to fresh water. Along this journey we discover the catalyst for this movement and encounter Indigenous archetypes, mystery beings, and the ancestral pull of the next seven generations.

In the Miigis excerpts, a significant cultural story comes to the surface, centering our narrative and opening the imaginations of audiences. We share Anishinaabe story, archetypes, and ethos which are part of the Indigenous canon of North America, but whose stories have rarely-if ever-been seen or heard on stages.

Miigis reveals the power of nature through dance, theatrical innovation and a fusion of athleticism, music and film.

Original music by Red Sky Performance and performed by Rick Sacks, Marie Gaudet and Ian de Souza.
