Aboriginal Drama and Theatre is a foundational
collection that explores the development, significance, and impact of
Indigenous theatre in Canada. Featuring essays by Indigenous and non-Indigenous
scholars, artists, and playwrights, the volume highlights the ways Indigenous
drama serves as a powerful site of cultural expression, resistance, and
storytelling. It emphasizes theatre’s role in reclaiming Indigenous voices,
histories, and identities in the face of colonialism and systemic oppression. The book traces the growth of Indigenous performance from
community-based storytelling and ceremonial roots to contemporary works that
address issues such as land, language loss, residential schools, and
sovereignty. It showcases playwrights like Tomson Highway, Daniel David Moses,
and Marie Clements, examining their contributions to a vibrant and politically
engaged theatrical tradition. Contributors analyze both the content and form of Indigenous
drama, exploring how it often blends Western theatrical conventions with
Indigenous performance practices, creating a distinct and evolving genre. Aboriginal
Drama and Theatre is a crucial resource for understanding the cultural,
political, and aesthetic dimensions of Indigenous theatre in Canada.
