Abstract
Hermant describes ribcage: this wide passage (dir. Diane Roberts), which weaves together the story of “multi-crosser” Esther Brandeau (“first Jewish person in Canada”) with Hermant's archival search for this individual and with her own queer settler histories. This assemblage takes the form of what Hermant calls “ceremonial archival performance.” Photos demonstrate ribcage’s interdisciplinarity, featuring physical theatre, spoken word, video, and live fiddle.
