| Sumario: | One of the benefits of moving to Saskatchewan as a playwright, director, or actor is being able to experiment with new or hybrid approaches to dramatic work like Ken Mitchell's constantly evolving Medicine Line. However, like that play with one foot in the past and one foot in the present, the attraction to Saskatchewan also derives from key elements in the 'old Saskatchewan.' That includes the formidable history and ongoing developmental programs of the Saskatchewan Playwrights Centre, but it also encompasses the centre-piece of traditional indigenous and farming culture-a more immediate and sympathetic connection with the natural environment, traditional ways, and the land.
