Summer in the north woods of Minnesota. The days are long. The stars
are bright. But when it gets dark, it gets really dark—like when
someone opens fire at camp. NORTH STAR is a new play that centers
around an all-female group of campers and counselors coping with
violence that leaves them utterly vulnerable. At the crux of this play
is the question: what happens when social contracts are broken, when
gun violence breaks through places that should feel safe, and when
young people lose trust in the adults in their lives? Their stories
are entwined with the French Canadian myth of La Chasse-Galerie, in
which a group of voyageurs made a deal with the devil to journey home
in a flying canoe in order to see their lost loved ones.
