The Ginger Goodwin Story � A Play Reading
add to outlook add to google calendar remind me
Albert "Ginger" Goodwin, a coal miner, union organizer, passionate anti-war activist and hero of the B.C. labour movement was hunted down and shot by Dominion Police in the bush near Cumberland, B.C. as he fled conscription in 1918. This play portrays Goodwin's pacifism and his skill as an orator. It also examines the events leading to his death. The play has its origins in Janet Munsil's playwrights workshop with Intrepid Theatre and was then developed in three different workshops with Theatre One's Emerging Voices. In June 2015, A workshop production was presented as part of Cumberland’s Miner’s Memorial Weekend.
Directed by Kate Rubin & Produced by Denise Brown
