We all search for our own individual identity, but what about our collective New Brunswick identity? Does that even exist? If so, what does it look like?
That’s the question being brought up in the Identity Journey project. The first step is to ask young people in New Brunswick what they think the identity of people in this province is composed of. Then, Théâtre La Cigogne will take all their words and stage a production to show everyone who we say we are. I spoke with Isabelle and Bianca about the project, what they will be asking people to describe, and their hopes for the broader discussion of identity.
Music today:
- French is part of our identity, so here’s a beautiful song sung in French by Coeur de Pirate called Drapeau Blanc.
- We have misconceptions about our identity, but we have the chance to correct them, at least that’s what I took away from Little You Little Me‘s song If You Say It Ain’t So.
- And Tortue will be on stage this Saturday, so let’s get started with Abe.
