Sioux Hudson Entertainment Series presents Saudade by choreographer Joshua Beamish

“Joshua Beamish is turning heads across the continent and emerging as one of Canada’s most promising choreographers” – Paula Citron,The Globe and Mail



As Saudade came to a close and the audience roared, this quote by Maya Angelou came to mind, “At the end of the day, people won’t remember what you said or did, they will remember how you made them feel. Beamish’s cast spoke with the most brilliant dance vocabulary but the feeling of Saudade that swirled inside me as the men glided across the floor is what I’ll never forget.” – Madison Embrey, New York Rag on Saudade by Joshua Beamish

The Sioux Hudson Entertainment Series Committee would like to thank everyone for their patience as we make our way through this next stage of the Pandemic. We were thankful that we were able to present our usual 6 shows in our 2019 – 2020 Season, before everything was “shut-down”. It was unfortunate that we were unable to proceed with our “bonus shows”, featuring the Canadian Contemporary Dance Theatre and the Thunder Bay Symphony Orchestra.

Along with our block booking partners, we were already well into the process of confirming our 2020 – 2021 line-up. We anticipated that artists would be able to resume touring and that volunteer presenters like ourselves would be able to present, starting in the fall of 2020.

Thankfully, our funders (Ontario Arts Council, Ontario Dances, and Canadian Heritage) honoured our “approved” grants. Most artists were able to push dates forward into our 2021 – 2022 Season, pending “COVID” presenting protocols, and awaiting our permit confirmations from the School Board.

At this point, there are a lot of unknowns. The only sure thing is our commitment to returning to our mandate of presenting professional, live performances, bringing artists and audiences together.

In the interim, we ask you to keep checking our website for any updates and we will try to make sure there is information on our Facebook page and in print, through the Sioux Lookout Bulletin.

If you would like to have your name added to our email list, please send your contact information to

From all of us to you, take care, stay well, and we look forward to celebrating our series once again, allowing us to bring life back to the presenting and performing arts sector and enjoying our collective experience as audience/community members.
