- Authors
Aganice, V. Grace
- Abstract
The Rez Sisters by Tomson Highway which received much acclaim in Canadian theatres depicts the realistic life of reservation camps. The paper unfolds the drastic life of seven women who are called as sisters either by birth or marriage. Their wish for a better life is visible throughout the play. The paper focuses on the seven women's optimistic nature towards life despite their failures in life. Also, it heightens the Indian spirituality ant the pride of Indian culture and myth. The hard working class-women on reservation teach the audience the rich culture of Native Indians. The trickster is found from the very beginning of the play which shows the spiritual presence among them which is nowadays absent in the world.
