Margaret Grenier, Artistic Director, and Andrew Grenier, Creative Producer, Dancers of Damelahamid
b'Guest host Lindsay Lachance, Artistic Associate with the National Arts Centre\\u2019s brand new Indigenous Theatre Department, chatted with Margaret and Andrew Grenier of the family-led Indigenous dance company Dancers of Damelahamid a few days before its NAC debut and world premiere presentation of M\\xeenowin. Margaret explains how she grew up among the Gitxsan people of the Northwest coast of British Columbia immersed in the knowledge and practice of her family\\u2019s lineage and tradition. Aware of the role that each generation plays in continuing the practice, she and Andrew are dedicating their lives to the process of revitalization. Their contemporary dance work M\\xeenowin, generations in the making, looks at what emerges from the epic loss and imbalance of the past.'
