SOMEDAY
"A short, tight work of finely calculated tension and economy, SOMEDAY is an effective play that develops the inherent power of a desolating, all too well-known scenario...(Taylor) has mastered his craft and is able to construct drama in which word and expression, as well as the medium of time itself are selected and modelled; in which expression is not a function of description, but the product of a dynamic internal and exclusive cycle of language, gesture and response...Taylor's craft and feeling for theatre are of a depth and subtlety sufficient to contain as well as project a message of explosive power...Tension generated by the grinding of nested contexts of Native and White perception as represented within the family is handled intelligently and sensitivity as is the strip of comedy injected by the mother's lottery win...SOMEDAY will be an especially powerful read for those who care about Canadian drama." Alfred Fisher - The Canadian Journal of Native Studies "One of the 50 Essential Canadian Plays" -- Toronto Star, June 29, 2006 |
