Café des Arts — Official Opening of the Montréal Pride Celebrations
PLACE ÉMILIE-GAMELIN
 

Café des Arts11 artists, under the artistic direction of Jean-Pierre Pérusse, offer us their interpretation of SUPERHEROES.

Often creating their art in precarious conditions, visual artists are in our eyes, cultural superheroes. By purchasing their masterpieces, you become their sponsors and their livelihood, 100% of the sales will go to the artists. Time to act! Also on exhibit: ARTISTIC ILLUSION (Kat Coric and Jean-Pierre Pérusse, with the collaboration of Robert Laliberté).

La Duchesse de Langeais – Presented in French

STUDIO-THÉÂTRE DE LA PLACE DES ARTS (175, rue Sainte-Catherine Ouest)

 

La Duchesse de LangeaisThe universe of Michel Tremblay’s La Duchesse de Langeais is back in a production by Rita Lafontaine, one of playwright’s favorite actresses. The character of Edward, one of the protagonists in Tremblay’s work, is portrayed brilliantly by Francis Bourgea, a young actor who has managed to slip into the shoes of a character that is larger than life. Rita Lafontaine has re-staged this play, which was originally created 40 years ago. The show is a tribute to author Michel Tremblay, her friend and accomplice over these past decades. In creating some fifteen roles for Tremblay’s work, Lafontaine has developed a deep understanding of the playwright’s world. This is a classic Tremblay play that presents two worlds: one, of outrageously wild characters with an incredible sense of repartee and the other, an understated and subtle world of poignant emotions.

Tickets: $25 (including taxes) — General seating. Wheel chair accessible.
