The Boy in the Treehouse
Reconciliation Theatre Presents: The Boy in the Treehouse by Drew Hayden Taylor.
The Board of Directors of Reconciliation Theatre Society is thrilled to announce the July tour of The Boy in the Treehouse, by Anishinaabe playwright Drew Hayden Taylor. The humorous and touching play directed by Pete Kytwayhat and featuring Kenneth Chalifoux on the fiddle is perfect for audiences of all ages. This 65-minute heartfelt play explores themes of identity, family, and cultural discovery through the eyes of Simon, a young boy navigating his mixed heritage.
“A theatrical experience, from our family to yours.”
The Boy in the Treehouse is an entertaining and moving coming-of-age story that delves into the complexities of growing up Indigenous in a multicultural world, offering a compelling tale of self-discovery. Simon finds refuge in his treehouse, as he grapples with questions about who he is and where he belongs. Through laughter, heart, and a touch of magic, The Boy in the Treehouse offers a poignant yet uplifting story that resonates with the entire family.
