Ogre

Co-produced by La Tortue Noire and Théâtre La Rubrique

He is alone, famished, disproportionate. A repugnant man is convinced that he is at the center of a reality show and that he is being followed by camera crews. He then decides to feed on his own fantaisies and to commit the worst atrocities as he devours the emptiness around him before spitting it out in a thick cloud of words. This show takes a sharp look at our pathetic quest for identity in an era where the cult of egocentricity is at the center of our lives. At the heart of this theatrical proposition is a spectacular Ogre who holds, in his filthy and dreadful grip, the rest of the characters, seemingly unable to escape. 

The stage play Ogre was a finalist of the Prix du Gouverneur Général du Canada.
