manidoons collective is excited to present bug by Yolanda Bonnell in Robinson Treaty Territory (Thunder Bay, ON)
Tue Oct 1st @ 8pmWed Oct 2nd @ 8pmCambrian Players: 818 Spring Street
bug by Yolanda Bonnell is a 60 minute solo show about women of an Indigenous family navigating addiction and inter-generational trauma.
When their addictions manifest as manidoons (Ojibwe word for bug, insect or worm), the creature burrows beneath their skin, pushing them beyond the brink.
Using movement, poetry, and prose, creator/performer Yolanda Bonnell weaves stories of women grappling with their painful past and making tough choices to survive.
This work is honest, unflinching, and raw; it will take your breath away.
