Public Performance, April 28, 7pm
Working with professional puppeteer Tamara Unroe at Mamele’awt Indigenous Education Center, students from Abbotsford School District immersed themselves in the story of Semá:th X̱ó:tsa (Sumas Lake) to develop this spectacular performance. The students bring to life three larger-than-life illuminated puppets based on more-than human beings that would have once lived in and around the lake.
Mentors: Tamara Unroe, Carlos Julian, Ashley Lamson, & Ana Horner
Puppet design by Tamara Unroe, Randi Edmundson and Jaqui Rolston.
