Double Life is a celebration of the life and times of Canadian poet/performer E. Pauline Johnson.

Pauline Johnson (1861-1913) was of dual heritage: Mohawk and English. From 1892-1909, Pauline performed her own stories, poems and plays across Canada, the United States and England. Defying all the social conventions of the day, this single, Native woman mesmerized audiences everywhere. Pauline�s own story shines as brightly as her work.

Through stories and poetry, Storyteller Margaret Murphy brings Pauline�s story to life. Double Life is a celebration of a Canadian heroine for audiences of all ages.

�Moving, poignant and courageous...We are mightily pleased to know so much more about Pauline and the times in which she lived�. A.B.

�What an amazing story...Pauline came to life for me�. S.C.

�It was wonderful to see a part of our history brought back to life in such an interesting and passionate way.� N. L-W.

�A wonderful portrayal�. A. F.-L

Don't miss this opportunity to see Margaret Murphy perform this celebrated story once again.
