Theater and exchange – In French
Almost by accidentn in a few days, Dave’s life is turned upside down. Overcome by sadness, anger and fear, the young man makes one bad decision after another, gets caught up in the spiral of violence and dives into a rapid descent into hell. Where will his fall end?
This powerful solo play exposes, in a powerful and raw language, a reality that is not often portrayed in the theater: the dark streets of Montreal, the working class neighbourhoods and ordinary delinquency. The play was presented to a sold-out audience at La Licorne in 2005 and earned Alexandre Goyette the Masque for original text and for male performance.
