Sharon Pollock — Walsh

Vancouver: Talonbooks, 2005. Paper bound, later printing, Pp129. Tight and unmarked - a very good or better copy. 165 grams. Walsh is a historical documentary depicting Sitting Bull's exile in Canada after the Montana massacre at Little Big Horn. The play examines Sitting Bull's relationship with Superintendent Walsh of the North West Mounted Police. It is a study of the disillusionment of a man who believes in his government's integrity, but who is betrayed by that government. "Honour, truth, the lot . . . They're just words, Harry. They don't exist. I gave my life to them and they don't exist." Walsh was premiered at Theatre Calgary; subsequently, it was performed at Stratford's Third Stage.
