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.

Submission Draft Hampstead Neighbourhood Plan 2018-2033
SUBMISSION DRAFT HAMPSTEAD NEIGHBOURHOOD PLAN 2018-2033 Published in October 2017 by: Hampstead Neighbourhood Forum under the Neighbourhood Planning (General) Regulations 2012 0 1 Foreword This document represents the culmination of more than three years of work by many volunteers and is based on the input of hundreds of local people. Our aim with this Neighbourhood Plan is to promote Hampstead’s future as a lively and contemporary neighbourhood with exceptional heritage and unique open spaces. Over the course of 2014, the Forum consulted extensively with residents, businesses and other stakeholders in Hampstead. We appeared at festivals, met with groups and individuals, got out the word through our website and the local media and managed to increase our membership from about 150 to more than 1000. Several hundred people attended our three consultation events. We listened to your feedback and worked hard to incorporate your views into a “Vision” document. The excellent response helped us establish a clear set of aims and objectives for how the local community would like to shape future development. During 2015 and 2016, we sought to put some policy flesh on these visionary bones, or rather, some teeth. We also spent many months gathering the evidence to back up these policies. We presented our draft Neighourhood Plan for consultation in the spring of 2017 and received overwhelming support for the policies it contained. We are grateful for the support we have received from Locality and would like to thank everyone who has helped produce this document, to the Forum Committee, to all of our local Councillors, to our consultants at Fortismere Associates, to Deborah McCann for conducting our Health Check and to Andrew Triggs and Brian O’Donnell at Camden Council for their guidance and support. -

PRESS RELEASE 23 July 2019
PRESS RELEASE 23 July 2019 Theatres Trust awards over £50,000 to eleven theatres across London as grant scheme changes allow more small theatres to apply Eleven more small London theatres receive up to £5,000 each from the Theatres Trust London Small Theatres Grants Scheme for projects that improve operation, access and environment for all theatre users. Five theatres were able to apply for the first time thanks to changes made to the tenure and charitable structure criteria to widen eligibility: Coronet Theatre, King’s Head Theatre, Matchstick Piehouse, Pentameters and 2Northdown. Hampstead’s pub theatre, Pentameters, will undertake urgent electrical works which will protect this well-loved local theatre – this grant is the first the venue has ever received. The Coronet Theatre will be able to provide induction loop facilities for the hearing impaired as it upgrades its sound system; and the King’s Head Theatre, will be able to fund an accessible lift in its brand new basement theatre home. Matchstick Piehouse, a new 60-seat railway arch theatre, will improve the flexibility of its auditorium with extra sound proofing and rigging positions. A benefit to all users, this work will also reduce the risk of noise complaints from neighbours. Also newly eligible 2Northdown, a small comedy venue in King’s Cross, the testing ground for comedians expanding from stand-up, will install a permanent stage allowing artists the facilities to present this art form more theatrically. Six other theatres receive Theatres Trust funding to ensure better facilities for audience and artist. The Bernie Grant Arts Centre, in Tottenham, will ensure the safety of its visitors by installing improved security systems, and those attending the Pleasance Theatre Islington and Studio 3 Arts will benefit from upgraded heating and cooling systems. -

Drama and Theatre
Drama and Theatre You need to do three things to be a top quality dramatist – watch theatre, read plays and create. The more you do these three things, the more you will fall in love with theatre, deepen your appreciation and understanding of the art form and develop your ability to produce sophisticated pieces of theatre. Doing any of these will develop your knowledge and ability, but the top drama students find the balance between all three: Watching theatre is the best way a drama practitioner gets inspired and generates initial ideas. You will see things on stage which will make you think or feel a certain way; it may prompt a cathartic response, shock you or make you consider a topic in a completely new light. As practitioners, we are constantly stealing and adapting each other’s ideas to create great theatre. Reading plays gives you a deeper appreciation of the history and tradition of theatre. It also allows you to consider a story and imagine your own directorial, design and performance interpretations. The more you read, the more you exercise your imagination. Creating is crucial to actually applying and practising the skills and ideas you get from watching and reading theatre. You cannot be a top quality dramatist if you do not practise the craft. And the process works both ways. Watching theatre and reading plays will make you a more inspired and informed creator. But creating will also give you a deeper and richer appreciation of the plays you watch and read. Below, I have outlined 16 of my favourite plays, all of which have made an incredibly important cultural contribution to theatre history. -

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.
