Rose is the eagerly awaited third installment in Tomson Highway's "rez" cycle--a large-cast musical set on the Wasaychigan Hill Reserve in 1992, reintroducing many of the characters from the first two plays, The Rez Sisters and Dry Lips Oughta Move to Kapuskasing. The play features, as the title suggests, Roses. One Rose has recently become chief of the reserve, a woman who must fight constantly to keep her position and maintain the integrity of her native culture. Another Rose died seven years earlier in the saddle of her Harley while on her glorious, but grievous journey to women's liberation. The third Rose never even had a chance to be born. Emily Dictionary and some of her female biker pals take centre stage when Big Joey enlists the Sudbury Mafia to help with his plans to open a multi-million dollar dream casino in the women's cherished Community Hall on the Rez. Bob Rae, Premier of Ontario at the time, makes an appearance in a land claims negotiation to sign the first Indian treaty in a hundred years with Chief Big Rose. Violence against women is once again a powerful issue in the play as the battle for the future of the community builds to its shattering climax.Cast of 10 women and 7 men.

Rose is a girl who loves food, friends, food, family, food, animals and food! Rose: First Taste is an all-ages, full-colour 100 page comic featuring her silly adventures she gets up to while trying to find the perfect meal and solve life's big questions, like: "are hot dogs sandwiches?, "what's the best ice cream?" and "when's dinner ready?"
Author of six volumes of poetry, John Rolston's poems often explore the relationship between the mundane and the spiritual, and these lost-love poems are no different. Indeed, it is difficult at times to interpret to which level he is addressing himself, or if, indeed, to both. Lost love, lost God, lost self - the yearning to reclaim the "lost not lost" is a journey through the erotic, desire, hope, resignation and resolve.
This powerful one-woman play is a moving reminder of some of the harrowing events that shaped the century and remains sadly relevant today with racial tensions and allegations of antisemitism continuing to dominate the news.Blending the personal with the political, this sharply drawn portrait of a feisty Jewish woman traces Rose’s story from the devastation of Nazi-ruled Europe to conquering the American dream. Rose reflects on what it means to be a survivor. Her remarkable life began in a tiny Ukrainian village, took her to Warsaw's ghettos and a ship called The Exodus, and finally to the boardwalks of Atlantic City, the Arizona canyons, and salsa-flavoured nights in Miami beach.This revised edition was published to coincide with the new production at London's Park Theatre starring Maureen Lipman as Rose.
