For this project, Roxanne Bouchard immersed herself in the world of the Canadian military, meeting with some 30 soldiers from eight different branches, listening to their stories, visiting military bases, and confronting her own values and prejudices. How can we live with the memories and traumas of war? This is one of the central questions posed by this text, which also offers a reflection on the meaningful encounters that can occur when we dare to open ourselves up to others. Before being adapted for the stage, this play was first a research project by Roxanne Bouchard, which gave rise to the book 5 balles dans la tête; récits de guerre (5 bullets in the head: war stories), published by Québec Amérique.
When you purchase a ticket for this play, you will receive a promo code for a 25% discount on the play Merci d’être venus presented at the Théâtre du cuivre.
This show is presented by MP Daniel Bernard.
