THE MAKING OF WARRIORS is a powerful story of moral courage. It blends dramatized storytelling techniques with objective reporting and personal recollection. This highly theatrical telling will ask audiences to consider their own connection to the lives of historical figures Sarah Grimke and Anna Mae Pictou Aquash. Grimke, the abolitionist daughter of a South Carolina judge and slave owner, was a forerunner of the women's rights movement. Aquash was an activist in Native Rights Movements and was feared by both the male leaders of her own movement and the FBI. Written by one of Canada's most prominent playwrights, THE MAKING OF WARRIORS is the spring production of theatre@rocky's 2-year theatre arts diploma program. It is being presented in conjunction with the Sharon Pollock Celebration 2012 hosted by the University of Calgary. | |
