SUMMARY:Sansei: The Storyteller and Yamabiko Taiko Drummers: Performing Arts Trail
DESCRIPTION:The Performing Arts Trail series\, presented by Trail & District Arts Council\, brings you Sansei: The Storyteller. Written and Performed by Kunji Ikeda. Produced by Cloudsway Dance Theatre.It may seem as though a light-hearted look at the Japanese Internment isn’t possible until you hear Kunji Ikeda say\, “If the Japanese Internment of WWII didn’t happen\, I wouldn’t be alive.”Sansei: The Storyteller uses dance\, theatre\, and humour to tell the story of one of Canada’s darkest decisions and how the rampant racism of past generations affected the Japanese community today.Kunji Ikeda investigates the social climates and hardships that affected the Ikeda family after they were labeled enemy aliens after the December 7\, 1941 attack on Pearl Harbor triggered the internment and dispossession of tens of thousands of Japanese-Canadians.In a tale that is both illuminating and profoundly personal\, Sansei: The Storyteller weaves together dance\, narrative\, historical audio\, and recorded family recollections in a moving work that CBC hailed as both “timely” and “uniquely beautiful.”Ikeda conveys his grandparents’ emigration from Japan to British Columbia\, where his grandfather was a successful fisherman in Steveston\, B.C. Then\, in vivid contrast\, his stories follow his family’s incarceration as his grandmother\, father and uncle were held at Rosebery\, an internment camp outside New Denver\, while his grandfather was sent to live and work in a road camp to build the Hope-Princeton Highway.With compassion and unexpected humour\, Kunji Mark Ikeda shares his discovery of where he came from\, how his family navigated their histories\, and how the rampant racism of past generations has affected the Japanese community today.The silver lining? If not for the internment\, Ikeda wouldn’t be here to tell this story today…Created and performed by Kunji Ikeda.Creator/performer Ikeda “dances and says more with the movement of his fingers than many actors do with reams of dialogue” (Calgary Herald). The artistic director of Calgary’s Cloudsway Dance Theatre\, Ikeda’s moving multi-disciplinary works inventively combine story\, imagination\, and choreography.Watch the trailer at https://youtu.be/tJBU7pDNEKs.“A tale of profound historical impact. Sansei is storytelling at it’s finest; sophisticated\, meaningful\, moving\, and humorous.” – Laurie Fife\, Ottawa Storytellers Society“He’s a terrific stage presence… a natural-born storyteller. The agony and ambiguity of the Japanese Internment comes out as much in his dance as it does in his words.” – Stephen Hunt\, Calgary HeraldAwards:Outstanding Performance by an Actor in a Drama (Nominated) – Betty Mitchell Award 2019Outstanding Choreography (Nominated) – Betty Mitchell Award 2019Best Solo Performance (Nominated) – Calgary Critter Awards 2015Best of Fest (Winner) – Calgary International Fringe Festival 2014The Yamabiko Taiko drummers will close out the evening with their high energy performance! Founded in 2003 in Kelowna\, BC\, Canada Yamabiko (meaning ‘Mountain Echo’ in Japanese) Taiko began with very humble and simple desires: purely to enjoy and play Japanese Taiko-style drums and be lost in their power and grace. Starting with homemade instruments made from packing tape and cut-to-size sewer pipes they began to gather in the basement of a member’s house.Today\, Yamabiko Taiko has evolved into a regularly performing group and practices have moved to the basement of the Kelowna Buddhist Temple.55-60 min Sansei Storyteller show followed by 30 min Taiko Drummers performanceIndividual Adult Ticket: $30.00.PLUS:• the bargain price of $10 for anyone under 30 years old• 2 for 1 for hospital / medical employees for all Performing Arts Trail shows.• New attendees 2 for 1: Bring someone who hasn’t been to the theatre before and get 2 for 1 for all Performing Arts Trail shows.
