'...There was a city called Berlin in a country called Germany and it was the end of the world...'
The Cote Saint-Luc Dramatic Society has another hit on their hands with a perfectly marvelous production of CABARET. The show is both highly entertaining and brutally tragic; sadly fitting to the world we currently find ourselves living in.
At once an intimate story of loss and a dark comedy, Birthmark attempts to highlight a pathway to building a productive and healing relationship between the Palestinian and Jewish communities of Canada.
The news is brimming with articles about youth radicalization. Wrapping the topic in a human, family story, playwright Stephen Orlov's newest work uses black comedy to cross the cultural divide between Canada's Jewish and Palestinian diaspora communities. MAI (Montreal, arts interculturels) presents Teesri Duniya Theatre's world premiere of Birthmark from November 3-18. Set in Montreal, this brave play, directed by Michelle Soicher and Liz Valdez, gets people asking themselves the ongoing hard questions about the Middle East. Continuing their mandate to encourage dialogue, Teesri Duniya Theatre will hold a talkback with invited guests after a number of performances.

Established in 2012, the peer-juried awards exist to promote professional and emerging English theatre artists and companies, to heighten their visibility both regionally and beyond, and to elevate the level of critical discourse about theatre in Montreal amongst artists and with the community at large.
Admittedly, I was not overly excited about Geordie Artistic Director, Mike Payette's choice of Jules Vern's Around the World in 80 Days. I recall being a bit bored as a child by the original David Niven film and I wondered, despite the book being revered as a classic, would the play appeal to today's families? My reservations were immediately put to rest moments after the house lights went down. Setting the scene for our action-packed adventure, the audience is privy to a cleverly staged bank heist.
