FeaturesTrilingual play blends symbolism, documentary montages to gradually reveal message of Amik, the beaver
Like a giant beaver dam spotted in satellite imagery, Émilie Monnet’s acclaimed play Okinum keeps growing. First performed in French in 2018 at Montreal’s Centre théâtre d’aujourd’hui, published in French with Les Herbes rouges in 2020; then released as an audio drama, and performed in English at Centaur Theatre and at the National Arts Centre in 2021, the work is now published in English.
