SYNOPSIS – PUNCH LINE
1 soloist / 55 min.
Punch Line, a solo work by Jacques Poulin-Denis, borrows as much from the comedic style of a one man show as it does from the intimacy and depth of a confession. In the guise of an artist talk, Jacques Poulin-Denis shares his takes on life and loses himself in thought. Through stories and anecdotes filled with joyful irony, insight and humour, he reveals himself. Characters emerge from this flow of ideas, embodying the multiplicity of our existence, the many avatars that compose us and the at times absurd strategies we use to hold our contradictions together. Treading the thin line that separates reality from fiction, Jacques materializes our inner monologues into sensory experiences, both subtle and intense. He is a transmitter of words, thoughts and gestures.
Punch Line is, of course, the culmination of a joke. In very few words, they create a situation that we subscribe to, accepting any turn of events, no matter how unreal. Punch Line is a salute to the imagination of both artist and spectator, to our need to create and believe in fiction, and to disguise reality to make it more palatable.
