Rainbow World Rainbow World by Robin and David Craig for TEN DAYS for Global Justice Director's Notes Rainbow World is about how Native people lost their sovereignty, wildlife, independence, land, natural resources and culture as a result of the European immigration to North America over the past two hundred and fifty years. In spite of the serious theme of the play, the style is lively, humorous and ultimately moving. We have created the play to be as simple as possible to produce, stage and perform.
Most entrances can come from one area.
If the acting area has two entrances, everyone can enter from one area and exit the other, or the entrances can be staggered, as the director wishes. Costumes are not necessary but each actor representing a group could add a piece of a costume to make them identifiable. The explorers could carry small French flags, or wear big hats with plumes, the Traders and Farmers something to suggest their characters, the Priests could be played by members of the church choir in their gowns. The Industrialist could have a loud objectionable tie or vest, or a top hat or briefcase. None of the parts are gender, race or age specific.
