Kevin Loring:  Where the Blood Mixes

Where the Blood Mixes is the story of Floyd, a native man whose daughter was taken into care by social services two decades earlier. Now, as Floyd prepares for a reunion with his child, he must find a way to cope with his guilt - a guilt that is exacerbated by the country's growing awareness of the abuse of First Nations children in the residential school system.

A member of the Nlaka'pmux First Nation in Lytton, B.C., and winner of the 2005 Vancouver Arts Award for Emerging Theatre Artist, Kevin Loring is currently an artist in residence at the Playhouse Theatre Company. Where the Blood Mixes won 2nd place in the 2007 Herman Voeden National Playwriting Competition.
