  • Michel Tremblay Auteur
    MICHEL TREMBLAY AUTEUR NOTES BIOGRAPHIQUES Figure dominante du théâtre québécois depuis la fin des années 1960, Michel Tremblay s'est aussi imposé comme romancier, traducteur, adaptateur et scénariste. Né dans un quartier populaire de l'est de Montréal, il découvre très tôt sa vocation d'écrivain. Dès ses études secondaires, il écrit des poèmes, des pièces de théâtre, des romans. À l’adolescence, il entreprend la rédaction de contes fantastiques qu'il réunit plus tard en un recueil : Contes pour buveurs attardés. À 18 ans, il s'inscrit à l'Institut des Arts graphiques, où il apprend le métier de linotypiste, qu’il exerce de 1963 à 1966. En 1964, Michel Tremblay soumet une pièce, Le train, au concours des Jeunes auteurs de Radio-Canada : il y remporte le premier prix. La même année, il rencontre André Brassard qui deviendra le metteur en scène de presque toutes ses pièces, jusqu’en 2003. En 1965, André Brassard utilise quelques-uns des Contes pour buveurs attardés dans un spectacle consacré à la littérature fantastique : Messe noire. La même année, Michel Tremblay écrit Les belles-sœurs. Après la lecture publique des Belles-sœurs le 4 mars 1968 au Centre d’essai des auteurs dramatiques, la pièce est créée au Théâtre du Rideau Vert, le 28 août 1968. Elle connaît alors un succès retentissant, au point d’avoir fait l’objet de près de 600 productions au Québec et à l'étranger. Écrites en joual, un registre de langue propre à Montréal, Les belles-sœurs donnent une vision renouvelée du quartier ouvrier où est né Tremblay.

Directed by Robert McWhir Choreographed by Robbie O’Reilly Designed by David Shields Lighting by Richard Lambert Executive Producer Clive Chenery SYNOPSIS Spindlewood, like most towns of age, has its traditions. But no practice, custom, or Old Wives Warning is so firmly adhered to as ‘The Turning of the Key’. Every year, on the last night of winter, as the first day of spring unfolds, the townsfolk gather to take part in a strange ritual. They meet in the centre of the town square, where a statue bearing the likeness of a young girl stands, poised and still, one hand raised as if to toast the sky. Constance has stood in the square for as long as any can remember. And she is never more lifelike than tonight.

  • Michel Tremblay Writer
    MICHEL TREMBLAY WRITER BIOGRAPHICAL NOTES Michel Tremblay emerged as a dominant figure of Quebec’s theatre world in the late 1960s. Since then, his considerable impact on French Canada’s thriving culture has broadened to include successful novels, translations, adaptations and screenplays. Born into an East Montreal working class neighbourhood, it soon became clear that Michel was also born to write. As a schoolboy, he was already composing poems, plays, and novels. The adolescent Michel wrote a series of fantasy stories that he later brought together in a collection entitled Contes pour buveurs attardés (Stories for Late Night Drinkers). At the age of 18, he enrolled at the Institut des Arts graphiques from which he qualified as a linotypist, a career that he pursued from 1963 to 1966. In 1964, Michel submitted a play, Le train, to a competition for young writers, Jeunes auteurs de Radio-Canada. He walked away with the First Prize. In that same year, he met André Brassard who would direct all Michel’s plays for the next 39 years. In 1965, André Brassard used some of the Contes pour buveurs attardés in a show, Messe noire, which drew on the fantasy genre for inspiration. It was also in 1965 that Michel wrote Les belles-sœurs. After a public reading of Les belles-sœurs, on March 4, 1968, at a venue for young playwrights, the Centre d’essai des auteurs dramatiques, Michel’s play was produced at the Théâtre du Rideau Vert on August 28, 1968. It was an instant and stunning success: so much so that there has been more than 600 productions both in Quebec since, and abroad.

  • Introduction to Ecovenue Ecovenue Is a Signifi Cant Theatre-Specifi C Environmental Project Being Run by the Theatres Trust
    Introduction to Ecovenue Ecovenue is a signifi cant theatre-specifi c environmental project being run by The Theatres Trust. It aims to improve the environmental performance of forty-eight London theatres and raise awareness of how to make theatres greener. Ecovenue is promoting the sustainability of theatres and the reduction of carbon emissions through the provision of free theatre-specifi c, environmental advice. The project started in 2009 and runs until 2012. Forty-eight venues each undergo an Environmental Audit, and receive a Display Energy Certifi cate (DEC) and Advisory Report. They track their energy use through SMEasure. Each venue receives a second DEC a year after their fi rst to measure progress. Ecovenue includes a ‘DEC Pool’ of performing arts venues across the UK that have obtained DECs. The DEC Pool helps us to evaluate the project and share best practice and information, establish meaningful benchmarks, and provide a better understanding of energy use of theatres. Any theatre can join the DEC Pool. The Trust’s Theatres Magazine provides quarterly reports on the participants and the work of the Ecovenue project. The Theatres Trust Ecovenue project receives fi nancial support from the European Regional Development Fund.
