This territory is covered by the “Treaties of Peace and Friendship” which Mi’kmaq and Wolastoqiyik (Maliseet) people first signed with the British Crown in 1725. The treaties did not deal with surrender of lands and resources but in fact recognized Mi’kmaq and Wolastoqiyik (Maliseet) title and established the rules for what was to be an ongoing relationship between nations. \nAs a settler run organization\, Keep Good (Theatre) Company is committed to participating in reconciliation efforts. During the run of The Children\, we encourage you to attend our screening of The Water Protector’s Journey and Q & A with filmmaker Eliza Knockwood at 7 pm on May 15.

SUMMARY:Remembering the Winnipeg General
DESCRIPTION:May 20th & 21st | 7:30pm-9:00pm\nDaPoPo Theatre presents a staged reading of a new play by Thomas McKechnie.\n“So what do we do in divided\, fearful times? What do we do with the howling\, hopeless\, yellow tinged guts in our frail little bodies?” \nWinnipeg\, 1919. Massive unemployment and inflation. In the wake of the Russian Revolution\, workers\, many of them newcomers to Canada\, unite and effectively shut down the city. Thousands of women act as strikers and strike-breakers. The Citizens’ Committee\, representing the city’s ruling class\, along with the police\, respond with force. \nToronto-based theatre artist Thomas McKechnie\, known to Halifax audiences from A Wake For Lost Time and 4 1⁄2 (ig)noble truths\, asks us to remember Canada’s landmark strike and consider the price of state-sanctioned violence and systemic oppression. \nHalifax actors Madeleine Tench and Kristi Anderson lend voices to the over 40 characters in a staged reading of this rousing new play directed by GaRRy Williams and Keelin Jack. \n**Sign language interpretation will be provided during the May 21st presentation. \nTickets and full festival details can be found at www.mayworkshalifax.ca

SUMMARY:A Timed Speed Read of the Triangle Shirtwaist Factory Fire Trial Transcript with Additional Notes
DESCRIPTION:May 29th to 31st | 7:30pm-9:00pm & June 1st | 2:00pm-3:30pm\nPresented by Surplus Production Unit\nIn 1911\, 146 people were killed in a fire at the factory of the Triangle Waist Company in New York. The highly contentious trial that followed  spurred the public to demand workplace safety reforms and became a touchstone for radical and progressive political movements. At the time\, people swore that the victims and the fire would never be forgotten. \nThree actors – from another country and century – are tasked with reading from the massive trial transcript as quickly as possible. Despite the  speed\, they must communicate the key points and central conflicts\, while giving insight into the 1911 events and their resonance with the world of today. Can they beat their best time? Can they surprise us? Can they help us remember? \nConceived by Alex McLean\nwith (alphabetically) Chun Shing Au\, Zach Faye\, Carmen Lee\, Kat McCormack\, Briony Merritt\, Lily Ross-Millard and Richie Wilcox \nStarring: Kat McCormack\, Briony Merritt and Richie Wilcox \nSet/prop design: Chun Shing Au\, Kai On Kerwin Lam and Carmen Lee\nDirection and Script (from verbatim sources): Alex McLean\nPreliminary Research: Myrto Koumarianos \n**Sign language interpretation will be provided during the May 30th presentation. \n   \nTickets and full Festival details available at: www.mayworkshalifax.ca
