Marie - Shadbolt Centre for the Arts | Nov 5 & 6

YOU USED TO CALL ME MARIE…
By Tai Amy Grauman
Presented by the Arts Club Theatre Company
A Savage Society & NAC Indigenous Theatre Production

AN EPIC MÉTIS LOVE STORY
Music plays and ponies dance as the epic story of Marie Callihoo and generations of Alberta’s Métis women unfurls through time. Follow Marie, Iskwewo, Napew, and Mistatim (“horse” in Michif) in intertwined celebrations of love and resilience as the Métis Nation emerges across the plains. Robust in scope yet intimate, You used to call me Marie… explores the fur trade and political uprisings in the 1930s to the present through era-spanning dance and live music, from French fiddle to contemporary country.
