The Prairie Chicken Dance Tour follows a retired prairie dancer thrust into leadership when an Indigenous dance troupe must improvise a European tour. What begins as a carefully planned trek becomes a series of mishaps, cultural encounters, and unexpected friendships.

Loosely inspired by a true 1970s tour, the story mixes sharp humour with affectionate character study: a man who hasn't danced in years, a young woman distracted by flirtation, an older performer with limited mobility, and an enigmatic stranger from the U.S. Together they navigate unfamiliar places and their own private histories.

Shortlisted for the Leacock Medal for Humour, the novel offers warm satire, comic timing, and vivid scenes of performance and travel. Readers who enjoy ensemble stories, travel misadventures, and contemporary Indigenous voices will find much to appreciate.

  • Witty ensemble comedy with heart
  • Cultural encounters and travel mishaps
  • Based on a real-life touring story
