The call of an owl becomes an omen for Eddie, a former residential school student in Brandon University professors Darrell Racine and Dale Lakevold’s new play Owl Calling. But what kind of an omen will it be for a man who has just opened up about his residential school experience?
The play premieres in Winnipeg September 25 — with a staged reading in Brandon at BU’s Evans Theatre on Oct. 3 as part of the university’s Truth and Reconciliation Week.
Owl Calling depicts the journey that two Indigenous men undertake with their families as they go through the federal government’s compensation process for former residential school students.
Their families believe this process will help Eddie and his brother-in-law Jim heal from their school experience and find justice. But the compensation model, as the family members in the play discover, has little to do with healing.
