Home Is My Road
by Florence Gibson
In this compelling and emotionally-charged drama, the award-winning
author of Belle examines the role of international adoption
in the cultural genocide of the Roma (gypsies) of Europe.
Two Canadian women trace parallel routes in Romania in 1991.
Grace is desperately trying to adopt a baby while Esme is
searching for her birth mother. Their lives intersect with
a Roma family struggling for survival in the aftermath of
the post-communist revolution.
“The characters pulse with life, the language sings
with poetry… features some of the most heartfelt moments
seen on a Toronto stage.”
—Richard Ouzounian, ****, Toronto
