Chutzpah! Festival
Local Artists Showcase: Opening Night!
Local Artists Showcase: Opening Night!
The Chutzpah! Festival is known as an international performing arts festival, and while we love introducing Vancouverites to artists from around the world, we also have some amazing talent closer to home. The 2026 festival is opening with a bang, presenting an eclectic evening of local artists.
Festival favourite Jacob Samuel will emcee a fantastic evening of homegrown talent, featuring flamenco with Liat Har Lev, a drag comedy piece by Uriel Yekutiel, a Yiddish-inspired theatre performance by Angelic Goldsky, music by Haley K Turner, and more.
Don’t miss your chance to get to know some of the diverse artists that Vancouver has to offer in this exciting, one-night-only showcase.
