Actor's log, stardate - September 2009

The Mission : To bring these two beautiful shows and everything that they entail to schools across eastern Canada. The Team:

  • "The Diva"....Antoine - Although he is high maintenance, he makes up for it with comic relief. He also wanted me to mention that he is the star of the show. LOL
  • "The Authority"...Vanessa - Let`s just say nobody gets in her way.
  • "The Mad Scientist"...Vladimir - Always has a solution.
  • "Cool Hand Luke"...Jimmy - Ok Whatever

Laval Liberty High School

Our first destination was Laval, where we would show "Smoke" (Smokescreen) to High School students for the first time. The auditorium was full with 9th graders who seemed to relate to Trent (Antoine). They laughed at his sarcastic wit and frowned at those who stood in his way. The students were vibrant and engaged, a perfect first audience. At the time we took the space for granted, but now we realize how advanced it was compared to some of our future destinations.

Coronation School

The poem that we use at the end of the play came from this school, so it was important for us to nail this part. Ehhh not so much, but we assure you Coronation School we have been doing your poem much justice since our visit. The students were an amazing bunch. From here we hit the road to take our plays to students across Quebec.
