As You Like It, or The Land Acknowledgement

By Cliff Cardinal

THURSDAY, OCTOBER 3, 2024 AT 7:30PM

Cultural provocateur Cliff Cardinal brings a devastating yet laugh-out-loud examination of land acknowledgements as a cultural and political practice. A timeless tale of mistaken identities, banishment, and forgiveness takes on an entirely new meaning in this subversive update of the Bard’s classic. Cliff’s Cree and Lakota heritage deeply inform his acerbic, mischievous, and fearless dealing with difficult subject matter.
