Je me soulève
Vingt jeunes acteurs et actrices sont réuni.es en laboratoire par les metteures en scène Véronique et Gabrielle Côté afin de créer une œuvre collective pour l’un des grands théâtres nationaux. Sur une année complète, ils et elles fouillent la poésie contemporaine québécoise avec l’objectif d’en tirer « l’esprit du temps ». En atelier comme aux quatre coins du territoire, nous assistons au processus de mise au monde de Je me soulève. Quel peuple serons-nous à l’avenir ? Que peut l’art pour transformer le monde ? Pourrons-nous encore faire des enfants ? Insurgé.es, habité.es par la ferveur de ceux et celles qui rêvent de beauté, n’obéissant qu’à leur intuition, ils et elles érigent une ode à la vie. Et lorsque – coup de théâtre ! – l’une des leurs est élue à l’Assemblée nationale du Québec, la poésie se trouve littéralement mêlée à la vie politique du pays.

⭐ 8.5Six Hours: Surviving Typhoon Yolanda
In the middle of a broadcast about Typhoon Yolanda's initial impact, reporter Jiggy Manicad was faced with the reality that he no longer had communication with his station. They were, for all intents and purposes, stranded in Tacloban. With little option, and his crew started the six hour walk to Alto, where the closest broadcast antenna was to be found. Letting the world know what was happening to was a priority, but they were driven by the need to let their families and friends know they were all still alive. Along the way, they encountered residents and victims of the massive typhoon, and with each step it became increasingly clear just how devastating this storm was. This was a storm that was going to change lives.

⭐ 2.6Oh ! Calcutta !
Based on the controversial off-Broadway musical comedy revue, "Oh! Calcutta!" is a series of musical numbers about sex and sexual mores. Most of the skits feature one or more performers in a state of undress, simulating sex, or both. The show sparked considerable controversy at the time because it featured extended scenes of total nudity, both male and female. The title is taken from a painting by Clovis Trouille, itself a pun on "O quel cul t'as!" French for "What an arse you have!".
Recital Jiří Suchý – Jiří Šlitr
The word recital was supposedly coined by the piano virtuoso Ferenc Liszt for a solo performance. In the introduction, lyricist Jiří Suchý emphasizes that although this program is dedicated to two artists, only one of them will perform, namely himself. He performs in songs that were set to music by his colleague Jiří Šlitr (1924–1969). The audience can thus once again be reminded of the enormous musical talent of this Czech composer, instrumentalist (an excellent pianist), singer, actor and artist, whose life ended prematurely at the age of just 45.
