Can a person survive his/her past? Can a people survive its history? Though torn-down years ago, the memories of residential schools still live deep inside the hearts of the First Nations people who spent their childhoods there. Floyd is a man who has lost everyone he holds most dear. Now after more than two decades, his daughter Christine returns home to confront her father. Brutally honest, irreverently funny and everything in between, Kevin Loring’s Where the Blood Mixes goes beneath the surface of one of Canada’s darkest secrets and celebrates its survivors.
Where the Blood Mixes was co-developed by the Vancouver Playhouse Theatre Company; Luminato, Toronto Festival of Arts & Creativity; The Savage Society; and Western Canada Theatre (Kamloops).
