Staged Reading | Into Your Hands: A Spiritual Battleground


The world never stops ending, and neither do we. After a six-year-long stay in a psychiatric ward, Kenneth Grey has finally returned home to their reservation in La Ronge, Saskatchewan. Now living with and working for the parents of their lifelong friend, Zanj, Kenny, and the other denizens of Alexandria Trading Post must navigate the trepidations of love, trust, and the power of secrets, as a trickster spirit sets their sights upon the store, and those within. The play is the story of this spiritual battleground and the cycles it is victim to. Written by Tommy Endter.
