- Summary:
- With Theatrical Twists and Turns, the captivating plays in Her Voice, Her Century shine a spotlight on the trailblazing women of western Canada's recent past. Meet an English doctor stationed in the middle of Alberta's unsettled north country, follow the rise of two influential Canadian photographers and their work, travel to London with a groundbreaking female journalist reporting during the First World War, and consider the court case as a courageous young secretary accuses an Alberta politician of scandalous behaviour. Drawing heavily on newspaper articles, private letters, and court transcripts, the stories capture the authenticity of these women's voices. This inspired collection includes photos from the Provincial Archives of Alberta and notes and stills from the original productions. Book jacket.
