Test your luck at the BIGGEST BINGO IN THE WORLD, with this award winning play by one of Canada's best beloved playwrights Tomson Highway.
When the town's biggest gossip lets loose the news of the World's biggest bingo, seven "REZ" ladies, armed with bingo daubers and big dreams (and a little guidance from Nanabush), conspire to get some game on.
Come along on the journey and meet the women whose hopes, loves and concerns for their families, communities - and for themselves, are met with hilarity, honesty, magic and a real live bingo game for everyone to play.
O' Kaadenigan Wiingashk has assembled an outstanding artistic team, using a mix of artists from Peterborough and across Canada, including a colourful, whimsical design by Ted Roberts, based on the Woodland style of art by Daphne Odjig and Norval Morrisseau.
Performers: Reneltta Arluq, Cherish Violet Blood, Gloria May Eshkibok, Nicole Joy-Fraser, Pamela Matthews, Susan Newman, Patti Shaughnessy, James Whetung.
Directed by Susan Spicer, Music by Curtis Driedger, Choreography
by Bill James, Set & Lighting Design by Ted Roberts
