Presented as part of RISER Edmonton 2023.
Written by Shyanne Duquette.
Directed by Danielle LaRose.

Two strangers on the Edmonton LRT meet and find out they’re sisters. When questions about their paternity and Indigenous identity occur they find affirmation in each other.


“Receiving professional theatrical developmental help through RISER has been a fabulous opportunity wherein I’ve met many fantastic individuals and learned the ins and outs of theatrical production. I’m excited to pass this knowledge on and continue developing the Edmonton arts scene through my work and by aiding other artists as much as I can.”
-Shyanne Duquette
