Pick a word, any word.

Prompted by audience suggestion, playwright-poet and performer Inua Ellams searches an electronic archive of every paragraph, sentence and word he's ever written and reads a spontaneous selection. Poems mingle with plays and essays, generating a performance that’s different every time.

An act of call and response that hearkens back to the birth of storytelling, SEARCH PARTY is uniquely futuristic and gloriously interactive. This “immensely erudite, multifaceted, and busy artist” (Vulture) invites you to join in the work. What will you say?
 
“It’s a luxury to hear Ellams… I highly recommend. Go hang with him.” — New York Times
“Like his theatrical work, SEARCH PARTY shows Ellams’s versatility and fearlessness as an artist who’s willing to take risks, especially in a show like this, which by its nature will never be the same twice.” — TheaterMania
“He impressed us with his talent as a performer, with his genuine love of theater, and his unique gift of bonding with an audience.” — Theater Pizzazz

Enter the wholly unique world of Jeremy Dutcher—a Two-Spirit song carrier, classically trained tenor, and Wolastoqiyik member of Neqotkuk (Tobique First Nation) in eastern Canada—live at Banff Centre.

Dutcher’s acclaimed debut Wolastoqiyik Lintuwakonawa unearthed century-old archival recordings of his ancestors and turned them into collaborative, piano-based compositions. Sung entirely in Wolastoqey, his endangered mother tongue, it went on to win the 2018 Polaris Music Prize, and led to collaborations with Yo-Yo Ma and Leslie Feist.

His sophomore album Motewolonuwok ᒣᑌᐧᐁᓓᓄᐧᐁᒃ , which features several English-language originals, was awarded the 2024 Polaris Music Prize, making Jeremy the first double winner.

Unapologetically playful in its incorporation of classical and jazz influences, full of reverence for Wolastoqiyik tradition, and teeming with the urgency of modern-day resistance, Dutcher’s music is like nothing else.

“A moment-defining record.” — CBC Music
“A lustrous work of high drama.” — The Globe and Mail
“There is no one making music like this." — NPR Music

Join two-time JUNO Award-winning Oji-Cree artist Aysanabee (Ace-in-abbey) on the western Canadian run of his first-ever headlining tour, The Way We’re Born Tour. Following two incredible Canadian support tours with Allison Russell and Dan Mangan, this spring’s Eastern Canadian tour, as well as countless global festival appearances, it is now time for Aysanabee to take center stage and share his powerful music—including the radio hit singles "Nomads," “We Were Here,” "Somebody Else," and his newest radio charting single “Edge Of The Earth”—along with his engaging storytelling.

The alternative indie artist, of Sucker Clan from the Sandy Lake First Nation, a remote fly-in community in Northwestern Ontario, Canada, now calls Toronto home. He began making music under his mother’s maiden name when moments of stillness allowed him to slow down and create music that truly represented him as an artist. He’s been compared to Hozier and Kings of Leon, among others.
In March 2024, Aysanabee made history as the first Indigenous artist to win the JUNO Awards for Alternative Album of the Year and the coveted Songwriter of the Year for his EP Here and Now. His debut album, Watin (Nov 2022), named after his grandfather, combined music and journalism with artistry and expression and was shortlisted for the 2023 Polaris Music Prize.

Since 2021, he has performed over 300 shows across Canada and globally, including tours abroad with Kim Churchill (AUS) and Skye Wallace (IT), and international festivals Reeperbahn (DE), The Great Escape (UK), SXSW Sydney (AUS), Tallinn Music Week (ES), and AmericanaFestUK (GB).
