The Story
After decades of performances near and far, the whirlwind returns with its tenth Canadian tour. Shumka means “whirlwind,” a powerful display of artistry, energy and emotion through dance. The Toronto Star called Shumka
“Canada’s National Treasure,” and the Globe & Mail compared Shumka to Riverdance. The program will showcase four of Shumka's newest works: the all-ages Disneyesque Mosquito's Wedding, a tribute in film to the Ukrainian pioneers in Canada, Promised Land, a salute to the bravery of the people in current Ukraine, My Yeh, and a celebration of the emotion, energy and evolution of Ukrainian dance, Echoes of Hopak. The mixed work program features original music, projection and multimedia design, film, and new choreography.
