Voices from yesterday and today to celebrate International Women’s Rights Day.

An intergenerational mix to mark International Women’s Rights Day. Barbara Guillaume’s demanding voice accompanied by the sweetness of the new generation, Tamara Suffren, all fire and brimstone, who follows the line of classical music with the curves of the compass, an Azaf who has proved herself in masterful interpretations of Haitian classics.
An evening of positive vibes concocted by women for audiences of all kinds.

An evening of humor with the Jean-Louis sisters

For one evening
Not a tour.
Not a fixed format.
Not stand-up as usual.
For one evening, the rules change.
Two sisters on stage.
Skits.
Games.
Moments that can never be repeated.
Here, anything can happen.
What’s written can go wrong.
The unexpected becomes the best part of the evening.
We play.
We improvise.
We provoke each other a little.
We laugh a lot.
It’s a unique evening.
A playground.
A free space.
Pour un soir with Les Sœurs Jean-Louis.
You’ve come to laugh.
You stay for the unexpected.
The Jean-Louis sisters

Verre cassé by Alain Mabanckou as part of the 8th edition of Fethécomnoirs

”The ‘very horrific’ story of Crédit a voyagé, a filthy Congolese bar, is told here by one of its most assiduous customers, Verre Cassé, who has been entrusted by the owner with the task of immortalizing in a makeshift notebook the astonishing feats of the troupe of fantastic cripples who frequent it. In this metaphysical farce, where the sublime mingles with the grotesque, Alain Mabanckou, with the rhythmic language and talent for irony that distinguish him from the younger generation of African writers, presents us with a lively and delightful portrait of another African reality, far removed from the ethnic tableaux of the moment.

12e étage, a text by Gary Victor, directed by Ralph Civil and performed by Pierre Hector Nazon.

Passion, Love, Madness, a whole package like a rainbow bubble in Roger’s subconscious.
Comedian by profession in a country where this profession rhymes with MISERY, but bitten by a
Strong-tempered, Roger believes he can make a success of his life through his profession. Barriers
He’s passionate about theater and in love with Sophie, a fastidious, meticulous and mercantile woman. Passionate about theater and in love with Sophie, a fastidious, meticulous and mercantile woman, Roger is also crazy about seeing another country, a country where life is good for everyone.
Then, one morning, a patron of the arts, whose identity he doesn’t know, gives him the job of jumping from the
twelfth floor, in a play, for a fee of one million dollars. Roger
would earn a million dollars for a single performance. Ironically, he lives on the twelfth floor of an apartment.

In Memoriam
2026-03-14 19:00 - 21:00 | 475 Boul. de Maisonneuve E, 475 Boulevard de Maisonneuve East, Montréal, QC, H2L 5C4, Canada
In Memoriam features a mother in dialogue with her daughter, who died in the earthquake of January 12, 2010.

In Memoriam features a mother in dialogue with her daughter, who died in the earthquake of January 12, 2010. Since then, one question has pierced her: When did you die? It’s a sentence she’s never been able to put into words, but finally utters, breathless, unable even to cry.
The daughter, who has returned from somewhere else, remembers almost nothing. She asks for news, seeks to understand, and tries to bear her mother’s pain, this frozen, silent pain that has never found a way out.
The dialogue is heavy, hesitant, shot through with broken memories, silences and powerlessness. The mother, consumed by solitude, remains unresponsive. But at the heart of this suspended speech, a discreet breath seeps in. A fragile hope that dares to say it may be time to start living again.
In sharp language, where every word seems carved from memory, In Memoriam opens a breach in the silence of January 12. An attempt to speak the unspeakable, to make room for what has never been said.

Ida
2026-03-20 19:00 - 21:00 | 475 Boul. de Maisonneuve E, 475 Boulevard de Maisonneuve East, Montréal, QC, H2L 5C4, Canada
This show is our ultimate way of expressing homesickness, and also to think of all the people who have disappeared, cities burned and women lost.

“Ida Ô Ida Ô Ida Ô Ida. Ida has always cradled me and the other man in me. And with her, we experienced many crossings, many oceans, many hotel rooms, many public squares, many cane fields, many escapades, many hot nights. But the streets were always our favorite. What will the streets say when they know our country is surrounded by water but still can’t swim?” IDA is an interrupted, sensitive song, all voice and echo, which paints a hallucinatory picture of its third island, where man, drawn into a spiral of self-destruction, turns out to be the gravedigger of his own utopia. This text explains the story of a man who grew up in the neighborhoods of Port-au-Prince, exploring almost every corner of the capital. This sad, desperate man, who lived in Port-au-Prince with his wife, used her as an alibi to talk about his country’s pain. He took the opportunity to denounce the behavior of our leaders, who took advantage of their supremacy to plunder the state coffers while the majority of the population starved. Ida is a void in the heart of this despair in a city that is timidly disappearing, where each of us has left our footprints, our history, our mad laughter and our most mysterious moments in life. Port-au-Prince, Haiti’s capital, now turned to fire and ashes. How many cities have disappeared like Port-au-Prince in bloody nights? This text was written by Guy Junior Régis and published in 2016. Was an X-ray of the city of Port-au-Prince and all those around it. Its staging has been presented several times in Port-au-Prince, France with different actors. Personally, I presented this text as part of the Rencontres Littéraires en Haïti festival, at the Deschapelles community library, the Centre Culturel Maurice Cadet in Delmas and the Centre Culturel Jhon Blair in Jérémie. “I was young, angry”, he (Guy Régis Jr) recalls of Ida. Yet the violent, insalubrious Port-au-Prince he described at the age of 23, where people starve and no longer think of dreaming, would still be the Port-au-Prince of today in the eyes of this polymorphous 39-year-old artist. In Ida, shouted rather than reflected, he depicts, in an incisive, concise and violent style, the destiny of a man whose love for a woman, Ida, fills him with hope in a country he no longer believes in. We’re in Port-au-Prince. An obscure city. It’s still on your tongue, Ida, the word of hope that will rekindle the day in my life.
This show is our ultimate way of expressing homesickness and also thinking of all the people lost, towns burned and women lost. In the end, it’s a way of saying that there’s still hope if we all pull together.

The ten black men
2026-03-26 19:00 - 20:30 | Théâtre Créole Company, 5322 Jean-Talon Street East, Montréal, QC, H1S 1L3, Canada
Reading of “Les dix hommes noirs” by Étzer Vilaire by Collectif Mise au point with Rodlin Christolin

In Les Dix Hommes noirs, Étzer Vilaire questions the human condition head-on.
through ten male figures confronted with social violence, feelings of erasure and the need for dignity. Each embodies a way of fighting, of holding on, of staying alive in a context marked by exclusion and post-colonial heritage. This performance-reading takes the form of a narrative that draws on the polyphonic force of the work. Each man becomes a singular voice, the bearer of an experience, an inner conflict, a way of resisting or resigning. Together, they form a fragile yet powerful chorus, revealing the tensions between identity, survival and hope in a society that marginalizes and assigns.
