Event Notes
For two years playwright Maxime Beauregard-Martin and director Alexandre Fecteau—recipient of the Crow’s Theatre RBC Rising Star Emerging Director Prize—conducted multiple interviews with a group of single women in Québéc in pursuit of happiness that does not include marriage and motherhood.
A funny, lively and surprising investigation, SINGULIÈRES redefines the contemporary single woman by exploring feminism and the Catholic conventions with deep roots in Québécois culture. Through intertwining interviews, live camera work, and the imaginative use of green screens, SINGULIÈRES is a series of beautiful stories about women who, in spite of society’s expectations, are leading fulfilling and fascinating lives.
Both documentary theatre-makers and regular collaborators, Maxime Beauregard-Martin is a playwright and performer, and Alexandre Fecteau is an award-winning director and playwright, and Artistic Director of Collectif Nous Sommes ici.
Singulières is a must-see, without a doubt. – Radio Canada
