Romances & karaoké
Théâtre français de Toronto reaches out to its teenaged audiences with Montreal’s Théâtre Le Clou’s play Romances et Karaoké by Francis Monty. The multi-award winning play will have only one public performance at Berkeley Street Theatre on Wednesday, April 14 at 7:00 PM.
With Romances et karaoké, Théâtre Le Clou presents an exciting and festive collage: slide projections, songs, poetry, dance. The mingling of styles defies convention and challenges the audience. Created in 2003, Romances et karaoké won three Masques in 2005: Production for young audiences, Direction and Original text.
Julie, Joanne, Erik and Tanguay are experiencing acute existential angst! As they struggle with their self-image they blame fate for their misery. Under the tender and serene gaze of Julie’s mother, the youngsters will endeavour reconciliation within themselves and with each other.
Directed by: Benoît Vermeulen
With: Marc Beaupré, Sandrine Bisson, Mathieu Gosselin, Sylvie Gosselin and Catherine Vidal
Sets and costumes: Raymond Marius Boucher
Soundscape: Sylvain Scott

Transhumance
Nadine Bariteau’s show combines silkscreen, video and installation-based mediums. The theme of Bariteau's work is centered on the flow of human movement throughout an underground city, which parallels the natural flow of water and evokes feelings of transitory states. Transhumance explores the punctuation of time and expresses the nomadic process that occurs within the course of everyday life.

Grace & Gloria
The following performances will be presented with English SURTITLESâ„¢: March 22 and 28 at 8 p.m. and March 31 at 3:30 p.m.
« Since its hit premiere, this play has been selling out wherever it performed and this production marks the return of the Acadian star, Viola Léger, best known to English-speaking audiences for making La Sagouine a worldwide celebrity. »
The story takes place in the Blue Ridge Mountains in Virginia. Grace is expecting to live her last moments in solitude, surrounded by the din of demolition trucks which are destroying everything she and her late husband had spent their life building. Gloria arrives. She is a career woman who has moved out of the city and she has come to be a volunteer caregiver to Grace. The two women, from radically different backgrounds, get to know each other and establish a deep friendship as they gradually open up about their most personal concerns and beliefs.
