Description

A story of the ill-fated romance between a wandering musician-social-idealist and a Cape Breton coal miner's daughter, whose dreams are reawakened by their passion. The Glace Bay Miners' Museum is a play in which the all-consuming brightness of dreams and memory are overshadowed by absentee greed, callousness and exploitation. It is a tragedy that is hard as nails and completely unsentimental, yet nonetheless full of love and humour. Cast of two women and three men.
