Product Details
Overview
Who wants peace? Really?
Iconic Québécoise playwright Carole Fréchette brings to life two searing tales of women caught between preserving peace and provoking disruption.
In Ismene, the overlooked sister of the heroic Antigone delivers a lecture recounting her family’s tragedy and the doubts that still haunt her twenty-five centuries later. The tone of her presentation changes as she delves into the past and relives the most disturbing moments in her version of the story.
In Nassara, Quebecker Marie-Odile is attending a symposium on urban agriculture in Burkina Faso. As her turn to speak approaches, she struggles to gather her thoughts, grappling with long-buried pain, until the conference is interrupted by a man with a rifle.
Together, these bold and unsettling plays probe the complexities of courage and truth and explore the moral questions of our era defined by polarization, absolutism, and erasure.
