Filled with stories about the Sun Traveller and the Callihoo family\, the performance is a theatre piece that  incorporates fiddle music\, jigging\, and a life-like buffalo puppet.  \nInspired by historical events of the Métis people of Canada\, this original play for young audiences explores the loves\, the losses and the fight of Treaty 6’s Métis people – and their love and kinship to the buffalo. \nThe play takes the audience through the emergence of the Métis Nation across the plains\, then leads into the robust colonization that arises from the fur trade\, the disappearance of the buffalo\, as well as the political uprising of the Métis Association of Alberta in the 1930s. The story starts in creation among the stars and ends in 2024. \nWatch the trailer https://vimeo.com/940939867?p=1s  \n“I loved the play. The play was so so so fun to watch.
