Blackberry

At a deserted lakeshore, Fiona, Mo and Salim find peace in this urban hideout, a place that reeks of freedom, where they can be themselves. Until the disturbing discovery of a dead body, a murdered girl destroys their utopia and bursts the fantasy of escaping their everyday lives. Blackberry examines the lingering stain of colonialism from the perspective of four IBPOC youth. Analogous to the social movements of 2020, site-specific play, Blackberry is a relevant, mysterious and hopeful piece of theatre that contributes a powerful message to the Defund the Police movement.
