PuSh International Performing Arts Festival

The PuSh International Performing Arts Festival is produced over three weeks each winter on the unceded and traditional territories of the xʷməθkʷəy̓əm, Sḵwx̱wú7mesh, and səlilwətaɬ first nations, primarily in the territory that was the seasonal and ancestral village of K’emk’emeláy, colloquially known as Vancouver, British Columbia.

The Festival, held in January and February each year in the lower mainland remains a place for audiences to encounter work that is innovative and surprising, for artists to showcase for an international audience and for new work to emerge.

The Festival showcases international, Canadian and local artists.

PuSh has a collaborative leadership team: Gabrielle Martin is the Artistic Director and Annie Clarke is the Managing Director. Full Festival staff is listed on their website.

The PuSh Festival was co-founded in 2003 by Katrina Dunn of Touchstone Theatre and Norman Armour of Rumble Productions.

In 2005, the organization of the Festival was formalized with the creation of a formal board of directors and advisors and by being registered as a charitable organization.

There were 9 productions included in the inaugural 2005 PuSh International Performing Arts Festival:
