SAMCA

Spindle Collective and Riot King present a ‘prologue' to our play-in-development, SAMCA, written by Natalia Bushnik and Kathleen Welch. Filmed remotely in both Toronto and Ireland, we explore how our titular character, Samca, came to be the ‘monster’ found in Romanian mythology. Directed by Brendan Kinnon. Featuring performances by Natalia Bushnik (‘Samca’, voiceover), Madeline Kennedy (‘Young Woman’), Kathleen Welch (‘Samca’). Music composed and performed by Kathleen Welch. Sound design and editing by Jonathan Brown. Video editing by Natalia Bushnik. A huge thank you to the SpringWorks team for providing a platform to experiment with new methods of storytelling.

"We wish to honour the Anishinaabe, the Haudenosaunee Confederacy, the Wendat, and the Neutral Nation who are the traditional custodians of the land upon which we stand and the waters that flow through it. It is our privilege to share this land, which has been the site of imagination since the beginning of human experience.  

 

Hermione Presents ~ SpringWorks is located on land governed by both the Dish With One Spoon Wampum Belt Covenant of 1701 and the Huron Tract Treaty of 1827. We are mindful of broken covenants and the need for us to respectfully listen, to learn from our mutual history and to strive continuously for reconciliation at all levels. 

 

The responsibility to nurture this land and protect the future falls to us all and in so doing, we actively honour the wisdom of those who came before us."
