The Flood
and other misadventures of the female prisoners of the St. Lawrence Market
Leah Simone Bowen
Inspired by true accounts and the history of Toronto’s St. Lawrence Market, under which was located a basement prison, this play tells the story of two incarcerated women who form a friendship, and their fellow inmate Sophia, who calls herself the first Black woman in Canada and the leader of the prisoners, and how they come together to survive a flood of melting ice water.
