PREMIERING THURSDAY – Playwright Colin Wolf’s ‘CoyWolf’, directed by Sydney Wolf, will open Thursday at the Guild Hall. Here, Colin, visible, and Caleb Gordon, behind him, are seen at Sunday’s dress rehearsal. The Guild and Thumbs Up Good Work Theatre Collective are co-presenting the play. Colin draws on personal and historical events from his Métis roots to ‘create a world of Coyotes, Wolves and Coywolves. This story follows Isidor, a Coywolf, as he finds his place and his people in the world as a half-breed. Moving through this cyber-folk world, Isidor discovers his love for storytelling and travelling across prairies, forests, and mountains. As change threatens his communities from the inside and out, he is pressured to join the resistance against human expansion. Isidor moves through death, loss, change and love as he searches for greener pastures – if there are any left.’ The show runs until Oct. 7.
