Read moreThe Belfry Theatre endeavours to stage stories that offer multiple perspectives on the world around us. 1939 is an important work of art, and we are excited to share it with our audiences.
1939 was originally commissioned by the Stratford Festival, where it premiered in 2022, and is part of a larger response to the Truth and Reconciliation Commission’s Calls to Action. The script was guided by Indigenous Elders, Survivors, and extensive consultations throughout its development. It tells the important stories of continued anti-Indigenous racism and systemic cultural erasure through Residential Schools.
1939 leads with empathy and humour and seeks to give Indigenous students agency and pride while still addressing the tragedy of Residential Schools. It exists in relation to a larger body of Indigenous work, both at the Belfry and elsewhere.
