National Arts Centre
1, rue Elgin, Ottawa, (Québec), K1P 5W1
On a warm spring day in 1734, “troublesome slave” Marie-Joseph Angélique set fire to the city of Montréal. Or so the story goes. With dreams of escaping the false safety of domestic servitude in New France for freedom in New England, Angélique was instead condemned for the crime. From the late playwright Lorena Gale, Angélique weaves seamlessly between historical and contemporary times, speaking to us through the flames with an urgent message from the past to our own time. NAC English Theatre Presentation. A Black Theatre Workshop (Montréal, QC) and Tableau D’Hôte Théâtre (Montréal, QC) Co-production. By Lorena Gale Director: Mike Payette
