First produced in January 2020 at Persephone Theatre in SaskatoonThe music by Lancelot Knight is critical for giving space to reflect due to the hard truths being spoken.Joel Bernbaum already had fifty interviews collected for a play on race relations when Colten Boushie was murdered, which changed the conversations he was having—he found that people were speaking with a new raw kind of honesty—and thus informed the format of the play.
I was not a fan of this play. I found the characters so bland and the dialogue quite meaningless. I may give this another read one day because I was surprised how much I did not care for this play, but on this read I found very little nuance and I felt like I was reading a teenage social justice hero's first attempt at writing a play. Wish I would have liked this one more.
