George Ryga’s play brought to the public eye the devastating effect of European colonialism on native peoples through the tragic story of a young woman who was caught between two worlds. “. . . fresh and alive . . . the music is beautiful, sad, haunting . . . with a quality and pleasurability that meets any international standards.” - Bob Cumming, The Georgia Straight
