Last night we attended "The Trial of Louis Riel", the play which has been performed regularly in Regina for 48 years. I've not seen it since sometime in the mid-70s. I recall some of it clearly, but generally I've forgotten the arguments against Riel and remembered his impassioned speeches. When we arrived, Margaret was tapped to be a wife of one of the witnesses and to sit in costume as part of the performance. When she emerged pre-show, she recruited Kristin to also be part of it. This audience involvement made the play feel fresh and exciting again.
