Workshop for The Seventh Fire by Lisa C. Ravensbergen


In August 2018 Erin was invited to participate in a design and script development workshop to support a new play written and developed by her cherished collaborator Lisa C. Ravensbergen (director of Café Daughter).

Delinquent Theatre hosted this workshop for the new play entitled 'The Seventh Fire' at Progress Lab 1422 in Vancouver. A team of 9 incredible women collaborated for several weeks to bring new energy and possibilities to Lisa's incredible and challenging new work. This play is deeply poetic in nature and the development of sound and visual imagery in conjunction with the texts shifting and growing evolution throughout the time this team spent together culminated in a beautiful presentation to the public at the end of this phase of the process. Stay tuned for more news of this play's further development and full production in upcoming seasons!

I am currently living in ᐊᒥᐢᑿᒌᐚᐢᑲᐦᐃᑲᐣ (Amiskwacîwâskahikan) on Treaty 6 territory, the traditional lands of First Nations and Métis people.

Edmonton (as it is known colonially) is and has been home to a diverse range of Indigenous nations and peoples, including the Cree, Blackfoot, Métis, Nakota Sioux, Iroquois, Dene, Ojibway/Saulteaux/Anishinaabe, Tsuutʼina, Inuit, and many others.

Since time immemorial, this land has been a meeting place for this diverse range of Indigenous peoples, who have enriched this place with their histories, languages, and cultures. As a settler I have benefitted from Indigenous generosity, hospitality, and knowledge and for that I wishes to express her gratitude.
