On Tuesday October 20th, 2015, I went with my sister and dad to see Gidion’s Knot at Centre Stage. The play is about the course of a parent/teacher conference, where a grieving mother and an emotionally overwhelmed primary school teacher have a fraught conversation about the tragic suicide of the mother's son, Gidion. Gidion may have either been bullied, or he may have been an abuser. As his story is slowly uncovered, the women try to reconstruct a satisfying explanation for Gidion's act and come to terms with excruciating feelings of culpability. In my honest opinion, I thought the show was very well done. One of the problems I had with the overall story would be that it lacks any unity of conflict and is a soap-box for a freedom of speech
