Where have all the Buffalo Gone? – October 18, 2025
Where Have All the Buffalo Gone? is a magical and enchanting story that follows two souls through seven different periods of Métis history. It is filled with stories about the Sun Traveler and the Callihoo family, incorporating a life-like buffalo puppet.  

This engaging and relevant play is inspired by historical events of the Métis people of Canada. An original play for families which explores the loves, the losses, and the fight of Treaty 6’s Métis people, and their love and kinship to the buffalo. 

The show takes the audience through the emergence of the Métis Nation across the plains, then leads into the robust colonization that arises from the fur trade, the disappearance of the buffalo, as well as the political uprising of the Métis Association of Alberta in the 1930s. The story starts in creation among the stars and ends in 2024.
