Fresh off the critical success of Stitch, Native Earth kicks off their 33rdseason with another daring solo show by award-winning Cree playwright Cliff Cardinal, one of the most exciting new voices in Canadian theatre.
Winner of 2012 Buddies in Bad Times Vanguard Award for Risk & Innovation, Huff is the wrenching, yet darkly comic tale of Wind and his brothers, caught in a torrent of solvent abuse and struggling to cope with the death of their mother. Wind’s fantastic dream world bleeds into his haunting reality, as he’s preyed on by the Trickster through the hallways at school, the abandoned motel he loves more than home, and his own fragile psyche.
With his signature biting humour and raw, vivid imagery, Cardinal expertly portrays over a dozen characters in his captivating solo performance.
“Soon the trickster preyed on him in his dreams.”
