Saint Carmen Of The Main hits the in , ,

Created in 1976 on the eve of the referendum, Saint Carmen of The Main is one of Michel Tremblay?s most important plays. The NAC/Canadian Stage revival with a new translation by Linda Gaboriau, marks the first English language production of the play since 1978. Set in the nightclubs on Montreal?s infamous St. Laurent Boulevard, known locally as "The Main," the play unfolds as a twentieth century "Greek tragedy" with its underworld goddesses and heroes, monsters and myths, exploring the nature of revolt, rebellion and cultural identity.
