It was the summer of 1995 in the North Central community of Regina, Saskatchewan.  'Moccasin Flats', as it was called by the residents of this largely aboriginal neighborhood, was in a state of transition. In the late 1880's, settlers had converged on First Nations peoples in this very spot. Now the neighborhood faced challenges of poverty, slum housing, fear and anger among it's diverse residents.

Common Weal Community Arts, along with local activists, theatre professionals and concerned young people undertook a project that would begin to change attitudes within and toward North Central. They made public the lost and overlooked stories by staging a community play that honoured the past and addressed the challenges that lay before them. 

Fifteen years later, twenty of the original performers gathered together to reflect upon and share their experiences of that unique summer in the 'hood'. This is their story.
