POLITICAL PLAYWRIGHT (THE)

The Political Playwright is more than a documentary about one of Canada's seminal writers. George Ryga participated in Canadian culture in an era when Canada was first acquiring a professional theatre. Thus he worked in the very theatre he helped create. The Political Playwright speaks to a population that doesn’t realize that Canadian theatre can hum with expectation and alerts us to the dangers of both artistic risk and artistic complacency.
