Madeline Terbasket (Venables Theatre)

Madeline Terbasket (they/them) is a two-spirit performing artist. They do traditional storytelling, filmmaking, burlesque and drag. Madeline is syilx, Ho-chunk and Anishinaabe. They grew up in the beautiful Similkameen Valley and they now reside in Penticton. Madeline Terbasket is reimagining traditional stories with their physical comedy, queerness and vulnerability.

In their show, The Two-spirit Tease, they will take you on a bold, playful, raw medicine walk through their life. Weaving together memories, songs, poetry, and traditional syilx stories they will cover a variety of topics. Madeline will share about their mental health journey, body image, queer identity and joy. They will meet you in your laughter and your tears. Part of the Venables Alive! series.
