Tomson Highway and Kiss of the Fur Queen links

Here are a few links of interest that I've tracked down online:

Indian re:Act(ions): an interesting site by a PhD student from UBC who talks a bit about both Tomson Highway and Beatrice Culleton Mosionier.

A very useful site about Highway's play Dry Lips Oughta Move to Kapuskasing, including two interesting interviews with the playwright, a brief bio of Highway which lists his earliest plays, and an excerpt from the play.

Ceremonial Healing Theater: An interesting article by Ae Ran Jong on Highway, Dry Lips, and contemporary Native theatre.

An article about Highway and his novel and the review of Kiss of the Fur Queen from Quill & Quire magazine.
