IN DEVELOPMENT

  • Deer Woman. a solo warrior woman work of righteous vengeance.
    This is a companion piece to In Spirit, the work that planted the seeds for company ARTICLE 11. While In Spirit presents the voice of a young missing and murdered girl, Deer Woman is the story of a sister left behind. Lila is a big sister without a little one, and the daughter of a hunter who taught her all he knew. She’s ex-army, but can’t seem to leave all that training behind. Circumstances converge and Lila finds the perfect opportunity to avenge her baby sister’s murder while exercising the skills the Canadian government trained into her. Developed at the Banff Centre Playwrights Retreat 2017, public reading at Native Earth’s Weesageechak Begins to Dance Festival 2017.
