Event
The Department of Drama and the Greystone Theatre present:
Les Belles Soeurs
by Michel Tremblay
Translated by John Van Burek & Bill Glassco
Directed by Pamela Haig Bartley
Written in 1965 by Canada’s best-known Francophone playwright, Michel Tremblay’s iconic Les Belles Soeurs is a boisterous comedy that irrevocably changed not only the subject matter but the very language considered acceptable in Québecois theatre. Set in a working class kitchen in Montreal, this much-produced and frequently translated script features a cast of fifteen women discussing their relentless pursuit life and love—and bingo!
