VIUFA's Human Rights and International Solidarity Committee sponsors Savage Society and the Other Guys Theatre presentation of a dramatic readings of "Where The Blood Mixes" by Kevin Loring.
Irreverently funny and brutally honest, Where the Blood Mixes is an extremely moving story of loss and redemption. Floyd and Mooch, raised in residential schools, must confront their personal demons when Floyd's daughter Christine returns to Kumsheen after twenty years, to discover her past and her family. Her arrival is the catalyst that unleashes a flood of memories and secrets about a painful chapter in Canadian History. Where the Blood Mixes takes us beyond the headlines to a deeply personal story about humanity and survival.
"At first glance it seems like a tough go: an aboriginal-penned play about residential school survivors coming to terms with years of abuse and cultural decimation. But one of the most surprising things about this award-winning work is just how darn funny it is. Very funny. Laugh out loud funny." - John Threlfall, Monday Magazine
