What is Theatre in the Bush?
Set deep in Yukon’s boreal forest, on the traditional territory of the Kwanlin Dün First Nation and Ta’an Kwächän Council, Theatre in the Bush takes the ritual and mad magic of a bush party and distills it into an interactive, multidisciplinary event.
Against a backdrop of scrubby spruce, pine and willow, audiences are led through the woods to see original performances that artists cook up over the course of a week.
Featuring an all-Yukon line-up, Theatre in the Bush offers playful, daring performances mixed with a healthy dose of folksy Yukon charm.
Past shows have featured: synchronized swimmers, interactive sound installations, epic puppet tales, science experiments, drag performances, build your own clay creations and many other charming, irreverent acts brimming with creativity and Yukon ingenuity.
We are grateful for the support of Lotteries Yukon and The Government of Yukon, Department of Tourism and Culture Arts Fund.
