CBC is a proud returning partner of the PuSh International Performing Arts Festival — a presentation of groundbreaking, contemporary works of theatre, dance, music, and multimedia that brings together communities across Metro Vancouver. 

The festival, now celebrating 20 years, features more than 25 presentations including 20 original works of performing art that push boundaries, five animated parties and cabaret-style events, two film events, and two artist residencies, one of which will culminate in an open studio showing by international guest artists.

Festival goers won't want to miss a talkback session with CBC's Margaret Gallagher, who will guest-host Habitat –  a multidisciplinary solo inspired by the life cycle of hermit crabs, serving as a metaphor for Bettina Szabo's emigration journey from Uruguay to Canada, at the Scotiabank Dance Centre on January 29, 2025.
