Actress, Cara Gee, says Spirit Horse focuses on a number of sensitive issues such as racism.
"When we present the play or when we bring it to schools, we discuss that afterwards," says Gee. "We have a question and answer period where we point out the moments where the girls were experiencing racism and we talk about how we can all make a difference if we choose treat each other with respect and open mindedness."
Public and Catholic board teachers also received hands-on professional development to help bring portions of the play back into their classrooms.
