Tompkinsville is the true story of a Cape Breton mining town transformed from despondency to independence thanks to a rebel priest’s belief that we can all become “masters of our own destiny”–with a book in one hand and our neighbour’s hand in the other. Tompkinsville, a stage play by Lindsay Kyte, is the story of Father Jimmy Tompkins, Joe Laben, Mary Arnold and the roots of the credit union and co-operative movement. Ripe with East Coast humour, fierce with the fight for survival and uplifting with hope, love and faith in fellow man, the play premiered to critical acclaim in spring 2015.
