Lion in the Streets is a two-act play by award-winning Canadian playwright Judith Thompson, workshopped as the first Public Workshop Project at the Tarragon Theatre in Toronto, Canada in May 1990. It was then produced in its current form one month later at the duMaurier Theatre Centre, also in Toronto, as part of the duMaurier World Stage Theatre Festival. Music for the production was composed and performed by Bill Thompson. Its central character is the ghost Isobel, a nine-year-old Portuguese girl who is searching for her killer by observing and occasionally interacting with her neighbors seventeen years after her murder, revealing their dark, horrific, emotional, and very private experiences. Lion in the Streets was published in 1992 by Playwrights Canada Press. Source: Wikipedia (en)
