PRESS“Beneath the joke is a subtle critique of colonialism and the assertion of Indigenous land rights and the realized threat posed by contact. No, none of this is exactly obvious, but Koncan probably doesn’t want it to be. The Anishinaabe-Slovene playwright wants the audience to laugh first, and think later. ”
“Frances Koncan’s Space Girl is simultaneously out of this world and heavily grounded in Manitoba.”
