New Stages presents Women of the Fur Trade

Saturday, January 24 • 7:00 PM
The Historic Market Hall

Frances Koncan’s sharp, witty comedy turns history on its head. Set in the 1800s—but speaking in unapologetic 21st-century slang—this staged reading gives voice to three women: an Ojibwe, a Métis, and a British settler. They navigate a male-dominated fur trade world with humor, sass, and a whole lot of attitude, flipping the stories of figures like Louis Riel on their head. Strong language, bold perspectives, and laugh-out-loud moments make this a must-see for anyone ready to rethink the past with a modern twist.

Ticket Prices: $34.00
