โฆ Synopsis
"A comedic play about a struggling blues band invited to participate in a benefit concert for a First Nation community in conflict with governmental authorities. Upon arriving, the band discovers the entire lineup of musical acts has cancelled and they're left trapped behind barricades. Complicating the matter, there is conflict within the band and the sudden appearance of an old girlfriend makes the event even more perilous. This play is an homage to fast-moving farces while also addressing Aboriginal issues. This play deals with relationships, perceptions, politics, and what to do when you discover you've been dating your cousin. Ojibway writer Drew Hayden Taylor is hailed by the Montreal Gazette as one of Canada's leading Native dramatists."--Provided by publisher.
