From February 4 to March 1 the Belfry Theatre will premiere The Ministry of Grace, a grand, sweeping story of friendship and redemption, by Tara Beagan. It's like a sprawling Steinbeck novel - a real saga - of encountering hypocrisy and evil, while clinging to the beliefs that guide you. Produced by the Belfry and created by an all-Indigenous team, including designer Andy Moro and writer/director Tara Beagan, one of Canada's leading playwrights. It's 1950 in the deserts of Southern California. Evangelist Brother Cain has a booming trade; his tent revival show moves from town to town, fleecing crowds desperate for something to believe in. When he discovers Mary, a Ntlaka'pamux woman from the Nicola Valley, reading the bible, he puts her onstage, renames her Grace, and displays her as a miracle: an Indian who can read.
