An inner-city drama club tries to stage a Cree version of Bye Bye
Birdie in the Saskatchewan Native Theatre Company's production of Bye
Bye Beneshe.

The play, a comedy with serious elements, is being performed by youth
actors who are part of the theatre's Circle of Voices program. They
worked with playwright and artistic director Alanis King to create the
play, which is directed by Curtis Peeteetuce.
