CBC celebrates culturally fearless artists at PuSh
PuSh Festival runs from Jan. 22 - Feb. 8
CBC is once again a proud partner of the PuSh International Performing Arts Festival — a vibrant celebration of bold works in theatre, dance, music, film, and multimedia that has been inspiring communities across Metro Vancouver for more than two decades.
Running January 22 to February 8, 2026, this year’s festival spotlights culturally fearless local, national, and international artists, all pushing the limits of live performance and inviting audiences to experience new ways of understanding the world around them. With innovative productions staged at venues across Metro Vancouver and select programming available to stream online, the PuSh Festival showcases visionary voices and unforgettable performances that challenge convention and spark conversation.
Discover the stories behind the stage with CBC’s Michelle Eliot as she guest hosts a talkback for Orpheus. In this immersive production, choreographer Alan Lake creates a world where body, matter, and light converge—shifting seamlessly between dream and reality. Join the conversation at the Vancouver Playhouse on January 31, 2026.
