Tono tours to Ottawa, Toronto, Montreal, Whitehorse and Banff (Red Sky Performance)

Tono is the winner of the 2010 Dora Mavor Moore Award for excellence in the performing arts, and was recently nominated in three categories for the 2010 Canadian Aboriginal Music Awards.

Tono is a stampede for the senses: a visually brilliant dance and live music creation that connects the world Indigenous cultures of Canada, Mongolia and China.

Conceived and directed by Sandra Laronde, and choreographed by Sandra Laronde and Roger Sinha, Tono is grounded in the theme of horse culture and the grasslands/prairies, spanning the plains traditions of Canada and Mongolia. Red Sky continues to mesmerize audiences with its celebration of the creature universally regarded as the epitome of strength, grace and beauty.

Red Sky has received standing ovations wherever it goes. Tono was a featured highlight as part of the Vancouver 2010 Cultural Olympiad, opened for Canada at World Expo 2010 in Shanghai, 2008 Beijing Cultural Olympiad; Meet in Beijing Festival;  International Arts and Culture Festival in Inner Mongolia. Other performances have been held at the High Performance Rodeo, The Arden Theatre, The Banff Centre, and Toronto’s Luminato Festival at the Fleck Dance Theatre.
