An Alaska Native Teen Rises Above Trauma

Since 2010, over 8500 people in 38 communities all over Alaska have seen The Winter Bear, a play about a troubled Alaska Native teenager considering suicide until Native Athabascan elder Sidney Huntington turns him around using a mixture of tough love and traditional culture. Now even more audiences will be able to experience this compelling drama as The Winter Bear Project turns over production and related outreach of The Winter Bear to Perseverance Theatre.

The Winter Bear is presented by Perseverance Theatre.
