Description
Canada’s largest Indigenous youth performance, Outside Looking In, returns to Toronto for its 17th Annual Showcase. Produced by Anishinaabe/Ashkenazi multi-disciplinary artist Tamara Podemski (Amazon’s Outer Range), the exhilarating showcase will kick off with a thrilling new opening piece and call upon the powerful messaging found in street art and murals to inspire a theatrical storyline. This unforgettable dance spectacular features 175 Inuit, Metis and First Nations youth from 14 communities and will seamlessly fuse Indigenous culture, drumming and musicians, with hip-hop and street art in an embodiment of the concept “leave your mark.” An exciting lineup of leading Indigenous musicians will join the students on stage: JUNO Award-nominated musical group Nimkii & the Niniis; STOiK, known for a fusion of EDM and traditional Indigenous music; award-winning Ojibway Cree hip-hop artist and producer Plex; CBC Trailblazer Award recipient, Jah'kota; and Kanien’kehà:ka (Mohawk) pop electro-RnB songwriter, producer, and multidisciplinary artist Semiah Smith.
