Theatre Review, Bedraggled, Monument National, till Saturday, Feb 24, 2007

Author: Christina - Published 2014-02-16 11:14 - (1669 Reads)

Bewildered? Belittled? Behind? You need a night out. Come to

Bedraggled

Written and performed by Gabrielle Maes
Directed by Pierre Carniaux
February 16 and 22, 23, 24

Bedraggled follows the rise – but mostly the fall – of LA DIVA. Using songs from the opera, musicals and nightclubs for comic flashbacks, Gabrielle Maes traces how a Divine Diva ends up drunk, disheveled and on the streets. While Gabrielle transforms seamlessly between beautifully drawn characters, the audience is captivated by her story, humour and voice. Bedraggled sold out during its limited run in Montreal and was one of the top shows at the 2006 Atlantic Fringe Festival...

Come and enjoy getting Bedraggled.

Four shows only

Opening Night: Friday, February 16, 8:00pm
Run: Thursday, Feb. 22-Saturday, Feb. 24, 8:00pm
La Balustrade, Monument-National
1182 St-Laurent Blvd.
Box office: (514) 871-2224

Making Life Easier for Artists with new Art Services Kit (ASK)
ELAN is pleased to announce the launching of the Arts Services Kit (ASK), a new tool on its website for artists and arts service providers.

ASK is funded by Canadian Heritage and goes right to the heart of why ELAN was created—to share resources and contacts between artists. ASK provides a listing of arts organizations, a funding database, and tip sheets on applying for grants. The central component is a directory of service providers in Quebec. Our directory ranges from listings of proofreaders/editors, rehearsal space rentals, relaxation therapists, to accountants who are sensitive to the challenges faced by freelance artists. If you are an arts service provider and would like to sign up to list your service, or you are an artist looking for a service, information on training/professional development and funding, ASK is for you!

http://www.quebec-elan.org/en/ask

Membership with ELAN is free to Quebec artists and provides information on events, frequent updates about arts in Quebec, advocacy, and other items of interest to artists of all disciplines. If you are interested in becoming a member, sign up today.
