THEATER (DRAMATIC COMEDY)
“My boy, my Marc. It’s me, Mom. I absolutely have to talk to you. ” Marc juggles several jobs to support his family. He is faced with the anxiety of a meeting with his financial advisor, Madame Hénault. However, the session takes a strange turn when Hélène, Marc’s recently deceased mother, attempts to communicate through Madame Hénault’s body. A struggle ensues between the two women, revealing profound truths about life.
Through humor, François Archambault’s new creation explores the meaning of legacy, the search for self, and an understanding of life beyond material constraints. An entertaining and laid-back theatrical experience par excellence, this play is suitable for audiences aged 14 and older.
The performance will be followed by a Q&A session between the audience and the artists, moderated by Les Voyagements.
This production is presented in partnership with Les Voyagements, a touring experimental theater company.
