The Tragically Hip's '93 tour, Another Roadside Attraction, was originally called 'Heksenketel', or witches' cauldron. Which is apt, since bands on tour eventually come under some sort of spell. Reality is suspended. Into this cauldron we have added a sea of steaming fans, some vintage Hip performances and a tour bus on its last trip across the country.

Finding the Secret Path

Gord Downie
"Secret Path” is the award winning multi-media project that seamlessly blends Gord Downie's poetry and music with Jeff Lemire's graphic novel. It tells the wrenching and all too common story of Chanie Wenjack, a 12-year-old boy who died in 1966 after running away from the Cecilia Jeffrey Indian Residential School near Kenora, Ontario. Finding the Secret Path is an intimate concert film and documentary that captures Gord Downie, behind the scenes, as he prepares for an emotional and historic Secret Path performance, before the entire Wenjack family, at Roy Thomson Hall in Toronto, interwoven with footage from the original animated film.
