Tears of Joy World Premiere
A Trickster of Native
American Lore
Tears of Joy Theatre presents an all new
production based on that trickster of Native
American lore, Raven.
Like his cousin Coyote, Raven uses his wits
and cunning to get what he wants. He may be
sneaky but his tricks have given us the sun, fire,
and more! Raven Stories is written by Shoshone-
Bannock poet and storyteller Ed Edmo.
The production is based on three stories of
Native American Folk lore: Raven Steals the
Sun, Moon and Stars; How Raven Killed a
Whale; and How Raven Gave Water to the
World.
The style of puppetry used in Raven Stories
was chosen to reflect Native American Totem
poles and traditional wooden carvings, inspired
in part by Director Michael Grigg’s work with
Piotr Tom aszek, the artistic director of
Wirszalin, the Polish company where he learned
the style.
Shows open Friday and continue this weekend,
April 4-6 and next weekend, April 12 and 13 at
Imago Theatre, 17 S.E. Eighth Ave. Tickets are
$ 18 for adults and $ 13 for youth.
