The Unnatural and Accidental Women - Marie Clements

In The Unnatural and Accidental Women, playwright Marie Clements weaves a profound narrative that delves into the lives of women who have faced violence due to their gender and identity. Based on Vancouver’s unsolved murders of Indigenous women on the Downtown Eastside, the play intertwines the testimonies of these women, exploring themes of identity, the impacts of colonialism, and the search for justice. Clements’s text serves as a vital resource in the ongoing conversation surrounding missing and murdered Indigenous women in British Columbia.
