  • 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.

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.

  • QH 40Th Anniversary Press Release
    EMBARGOED TILL 5/11/18 at midday THE QUEEN’S HALL – LIFE BEGINS AT 40 1979-2019: Former church celebrates 40 years of welcoming music worshippers through its doors Southside of the Tracks 12.01.19 Steven Osborne & Alban Gerhardt 06.07.19 The Queen’s Hall enters its fortieth year in 2019 with a packed and varied programme of high quality events which reflect the wealth of entertainment it has provided audiences over the years, whilst also looking forward to a bright future. The celebrations start on 12 January with a who’s who of singer-songwriters brought together on the same stage for the first time by Scotland’s foremost fiddle player, John McCusker. Renowned for his skill at transcending musical boundaries, John has shared stages with Paul Weller, Paolo Nutini and Teenage Fanclub and has been a member of Mark Knopfler’s house band since 2008. In Southside of the Tracks: 40 years of traditional music at The Queen’s Hall he will perform with his chosen house band of James Mackintosh, Ian Carr, Ewen Vernal, Michael McGoldrick and Louis Abbott (Admiral Fallow) with special guests, so far, Roddy Woomble (Idlewild), Kathleen MacInnes, Phil Cunningham, Adam Holmes, Daoiri Farrell, Heidi Talbot and Rachel Sermanni. More guests are to be announced. Nigel Griffiths, Chair of The Queen’s Hall Board of Trustees says, “We’re starting our fortieth year as we mean to go on and have a bold and ambitious programme which reflects the calibre of artists performing on our stage. In the face of developing competition it is so important for Edinburgh, as the capital city, to keep this beloved institution on the map and I believe we’re now poised to enter a truly dynamic era in The Queen’s Hall’s history.” To commemorate the concert on 6 July 1979 when The Queen’s Hall was officially opened by HM Queen Elizabeth II, we have multi-award-winning Scottish pianist Steven Osborne with one of the world’s finest cellists Alban Gerhardt performing a programme of Schumann, Brahms, De falla, Debussy and Ravel.
