Frozen River at Young People’s Theatre

On the Ada Slaight Stage Apr. 17 – 28, 2023
Recommended for Ages 5 – 12 | SK-Grade 6
Run time: approx. 60 minutes

From Winnipeg’s MTYP comes a timely new play. In nîkwatin sîpiy, Grandmother Moon tells the story of two eleven-year-olds, born under the same blood moon, but in different parts of the world. Frozen River follows their stories as they meet in a forest, and that of their descendants who meet in present day Manitoba. A broken promise from the past can be righted when there is finally an openness to learn from those who have protected and honoured the waterways for centuries.
