Book adaptation by Gavin Mayer, music and lyrics by Eric Leigh, adapted from les feluettes by Michel Marc Bouchard, and translated into english by Linda GaboriauSet in a Quebec prison in 1952, the story centers on the fraught relationship between Bishop Jean Bilodeau and Simon Doucet, an inmate who has spent the past few decades behind bars, as Bilodeau is summoned to hear his confession. But Simon has other plans: he enlists his fellow prisoners to stage a musical set in 1912, reconstructing their shared past in Roberval, Quebec. Through the performance, the complex bonds between the young men—friendship, love, betrayal, and loyalty—are brought to the surface, forcing Bilodeau to confront the truth of their intertwined histories.
Tickets are $30 ($15 for students) and available online and at the door. Name-your-price tickets are available at the door for the Preview performance on June 18th.
The 7:30pm performance on June 26th will be followed by a talkback.
