Where We Belong
The Umbrella Stage Company presents the New England premiere of Mohegan theatre-maker Madeline Sayet’s ground-breaking one-woman show, Where We Belong. With great humor, insight, and imaginative storytelling, the autobiographical play weaves together Indigenous history, Shakespeare, colonialism, cultural legacy, the power of language, and legend. It recounts Sayet’s 2015 journey to England.
