NAC Premiere
An NAC English Theatre presentation of the Citadel Theatre production
Curated by Black Theatre Workshop
As Black pioneers fled the southern United States, Canadian settlements weren't just the last stop; they were considered “heaven”. In one of those settlements – Amber Valley, Alberta – sharp-witted schoolteacher Charlotte arrives from Ontario to make a better life for her and her new students. But the memories she's outrunning may threaten what she's found, and her budding friendship with widowed farmer Ezra, forever.
All tickets are $15 for our preview performance on May 3.
