 STOLEN SISTERS is a one woman show that centers around the lives and 
 legacies 
 of three Beothuk women and girls whose names have survived in historical 
 record - and whose stories have been mistold, misrepresented, and 
 mythologized by colonial interference. 
  
 By shifting the lens of history to reflect Indigenous perspective and 
 experience these women set the record straight, telling their own stories 
 with both humor and unflinching honesty. Based on the oral and written 
 histories of colonization locally and world-wide, these women shine a light 
 on the global experiences of Indigenous women and girls, and 
 Newfoundland€€€s 
 part in that legacy. 
 €€€ 
 The play is written and directed by Leahdawn Helena and stars Deantha 
 Edmunds 
 as all three women. 
  
 It is playing in St. John€€€s, Newfoundland from August 15--27, 2023 
 but then I think it may go on tour.
