The show is the playwriting debut ofWolastoqiyik artist Natalie Sappier (SamaqaniCocahq). Finding Wolastoq Voice brings not only the power of her own voice, but thatof her ancestors, to the stage.

It's performed by Toronto-based Indigenous dancer/choreographer Aria Evans, whointerprets the flow of Sappier's words and music into dance, providing a visual window into the discovery of language and self.

The Wolastoq people, whose traditional territory is centred around the Saint John River valley, have been showcasing their artistic prowess recently.Musician Jeremy Dutcherrecently won the prestigious Polaris Prize and a Juno Award for hisalbum sung in Wolastoqey.

IsmailaAlfa's pick: Guys and Dolls

It's a well-known story:A bunch of big-city gamblers from the Big Apple and a few from out of town are waiting for Nathan Detroit to announce the location of his big craps game. But he doesn't have the $1,000 he needs to get the game going.

So he bets fellow gambler Sky Masterson $1,000 that he can't convince Sarah Brown,a sergeant in the Salvation Army, to go with him to Havana within the next 24 hours.Undaunted, Masterson sets out to seduce Sarah and get her to Havana.

Detroit thinks he has made a bet that he can't lose. While Masterson woos Sarah, Detroit has to deal with his girlfriend of 14 years who has decided it's time they should get married.

There's a lot going on in Guys and Dollsand it's all complemented by songs you probably know well tunes like Luck be a Ladyand If I Were a Bell.

This story will be told by the Winnipeg Symphony Orchestra and a cast of wonderful actors and singers. You can check it out at the Centennial Concert Hall Friday or Saturday at 8 p.m. or Sunday at 2 p.m.
