When: Friday, June 11 & Saturday June 12, 2010

My Life is a Secret is an emerging play based on stories from Little Embers lives. Some of them are stories they’ve heard, some are stories they’ve lived, and others are stories that have been made up about them, like gossip, derogatory or exaggerated narratives. The specifics of the characters and their stories are fictional, but based on the real stories in these youths lives. The play follows five Youth and a Dreaming Spirit, as they explore major challenges in their lives using the wisdom of the 7 Grand-father Teachings. Like a butterfly emerging from a cocoon, this play is emerging, the actors are emerging, and the characters are emerging with the help of tradition, story, song, and dance. The show is a collaboration with the De-ba-jeh-mu-jig Theatre Group. Directed by Andrea Brassard.

If you cannot attend, please consider sponsoring a community member to attend.
