24 Exposures [2000]
(PUC Play Service, Toronto, 2001; Playwrights Canada Press, 2005)
Original
Résumé On a beautiful August Saturday, in the back yard of a Charlebourg bungalow in a Québec suburb, the Dubé family pays a visit to Richard, the oldest son, on his 40th birthday. The play takes place in twelve hours in the lives of simple people who joke, laugh, and love all wrong, but love all the same. Extrait « FRANÇOIS, mocking : I'm telling you, that François is so good-looking! (They all laugh.) / CAROLE : You're really cute with your hair all short. / ANDRÉ : And with those glasses you look like you think your shit doesn't stink. / CAROLE : No he doesn't! I think he looks more intellectual. / ANDRÉ : Same thing! » Revue de presse "With a rare intensity, Boucher captures in a few brushstrokes
the drama of a whole life." Solange Lévesque, Le Devoir, November 10, 1999 |
