Tyee Critic’s Choice: Pastoring a Shrinking Church in ‘First Reformed’
Tyee Critic’s Choice: Pastoring a shrinking church in First Reformed.
In this powerful musical, the children of an Oji-Cree family are sent to a residential school in Northern Ontario. Children of God is a story of redemption: for a mother who was never let past the school’s gate, and her kids, who never knew she came. The performance offers a thrilling blend of ancient traditions and contemporary realities, celebrating resilience and the power of the Indigenous cultural spirit.
Children of God will return to Vancouver later this February after a national tour and its highly successful 2017 world premiere at the Cultch. Tickets are on sale now.
