Why read it?
1 author picked The Berlin Blues as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
Many of the plays written by Indigenous playwrights are usually dark and critical. This play is a little different. It’s an unabashed comedy celebrating the Indigenous sense of humour. Essentially, the play is about two German entrepreneurs who travel to a First Nations community planning to build the world’s largest Native theme park, called Ojibway world. The play deals with stereotypes and the global marketing of culture.
From Drew's list on Indigenous plays on the people and community.
