Originally slated for June, the festival’s 15th edition was postponed to October due to provincial COVID-19 restrictions, which forced last year’s event to be held virtually

Festival artistic director Naomi Campbell says several works in this year’s lineup address “critical issues,” from the climate crisis to colonization and systemic racism.

The piece is described as an “immersive digital experience” created for Luminato’s online audience and the screens surrounding Toronto’s Yonge-Dundas Square. More than 40 dancers perform on the shores of Lake Ontario in the piece, which explores colonization and “a more hopeful and equitable future,” says a statement.
