Renowned for its artistry and innovation, Red Sky is a leading performance company that shapes contemporary Indigenous dance, theatre and music.

In Raven Stole the Sun, Red Sky takes a traditional story to new contemporary heights through a compelling theatre dance piece for family audiences. Raven is a fabulous and magical creature of impulse and curiosity. In order to satisfy his overwhelming sense of curiosity, Raven hatches a brilliant scheme for stealing the stars, the moon and the sun and ends up bringing light to the people of the world.

Play by Drew Hayden Taylor / Directed by Sandra Laronde
Based on a traditional Tlingit story as recounted by Sháa Tláa Maria Williams
