Abstract
Walsh is written by Sharon Pollock, a Canadian playwright. The tragedy premiered in November of 1973. The play focuses on the real-life interactions between an exiled tribe of Sioux, lead by Chief Sitting Bull, and the North-West Mounted Police, lead by Commissioner James Walsh. The friendships that develop between the tribe and the NWMP conflicts with the orders Walsh has to send the Sioux back to America, where they will be slaughtered.The fifteen-person cast help to teach the audience about a historical event they may not have known about. The play uses the historical events to discuss issues of Canadian identity, cultural differences, and morals.
