COURT HOUSE THEATRE JUNE 24 TO OCTOBER 10 ALBERTINE IN FIVE TIMES MICHEL TREMBLAY TRANSLATED BY LINDA GABORIAU MICHELINE CHEVRIER, Director

What would you say to your younger self if you had the chance? What if you met yourself 10, 20, 30 years in the future? Michel Tremblay takes his favourite character and puts her on stage with five versions of herself to talk to – five Albertines from ages 30 to 70. And she loves to talk. About her life, her marriage and her children with passion, honesty and humour. We present a new translation of this Canadian classic.

“Michel Tremblay’s Albertine – a fascinating, conflicted woman who refuses to take life’s knocks lying down – is one of Quebec theatre’s most celebrated characters. We welcome her and Michel – Canadian icons both – to our Festival.”
