Rachael Storey's Company Details
Urban Ink Productions ignites and inspires revolutionary voices that transform our world. We collaborate with artists and communities to push cultural boundaries through the creation and production of innovative Indigenous and Intercultural performance works. Our Story: Urban Ink was founded by Metis artist Marie Clements as a First Nations theatre company in 2001, taken over by Diane Roberts, and is now under the Direction of Corey Payette, the company creates, develops and produces aboriginal and diverse cultural works of theatre, writing and film, utilizing an approach which embraces and strives for the combination and integration of artistic disciplines, including different forms of theatre, story-telling, dance, music, video and multi-media. Dear Friends, It is with the utmost pride and excitement that I introduce Urban Ink's celebratory 15th anniversary season. It's the most ambitious and wide-reaching season in the company's history – that reaches local, rural, and national Indigenous and Intercultural communities. At Urban Ink, we are putting the power in the hands of Indigenous and Intercultural artists to tell their own stories from their own unique voices. Join us this season for four outstanding productions: the powerful story of two remarkable women in Return Home, a workshop production of Children of God in Kamloops, a national tour of our groundbreaking production Sal Capone, and a brand new work by the exciting emerging artists of the Urban Ink Collective in Silenced. This landmark 15th anniversary season furthers our efforts to promote intercultural understanding, ignite conversation from coast to coast, and celebrate the rich history of this land by bringing communities together in a national conversation that affirms diversity as a shared Canadian value. I hope you will join us. Corey Payette, Artistic Director Urban Ink Productions
