One hundred and thirty-three years after the Donnelly massacre, playwright Jonathan Christenson spent an afternoon in the old Donnelly homestead with the current owner of the property, Robert Salts. Out of that conversation, Christenson, the inventive artistic director of Catalyst Theatre, crafted a new Canadian musical entitled Vigilante.
Beth Kates of Playground Studios has been nominated for a Sterling Award for Outstanding Lighting Design for Vigilante.
