Fancy Dancer

By Dawn Dumont

Fancy Dancer deals with the overlooked murders of thousands of Aboriginal women in Canada. The plays asks why society hasn't taken a stronger stance against these murders? How have the media and the police failed to respond? What effect of this lack of concern over their well-being does this have on Aboriginal women and their communities?
