A Story Well Told

Do you have a family story you can tell? Family Story, a Birdtown and Swanville production, is like many family stories. It is twisted, convoluted and of course complicated. Brilliantly written and directed by Aurora Stewart de Pena, it's a story about the Milkaffer family, currently living in the prairies of Manitoba as the youngest daughter tries to figure out her family past and why she is the way she is.
