Synopsis

Sisters is a tough, uncompromising look at a convent-run Native residential school.

While the play chronicles in graphic detail the by now well documented agenda of cultural genocide which motivated the establishment of Native residential schools in Canada, the daring triumph of this play is that it reveals the far less well documented cultural infrastructure and values of the society which created those schools―the church and the state of white, colonial, paternalist Canada.
