Theatre as a catalyst for a better world.
Pink Man is a semi-autobiographical journey of self-discovery that follows one American Indian as he battles tradition, stereotypes and himself. With mixed blood and white features, he faces constant internal and external struggles. As he revisits the formative stages of his life, we watch him grapple with expectations, self doubt, and finding acceptance.
The play utilizes Ojibwe traditions for storytelling while putting a clear focus on the various ways that our Native American culture has been weathered away over time.
Being red is terrifying. Being white feels fraudulent. So, the Indian finds himself forced to live in the pink.
