What is the Spirit Horse tour?

Roseneath Theatre’s award-winning production of Spirit Horse is a play about two First Nations youth who are caught between two worlds—the traditional ways and the modern ways of the city. They are given new hope by a Spirit Horse that rides into their lives. Adapted by celebrated Ojibway playwright Drew Hayden Taylor, the play is being performed for Grades 3 to 8 students in 80 public and Catholic schools across the North.
