John Murrell's constantly surprising comedy about the impossibility of escaping one's roots.

Brenda is a U of C anthropology professor who inherits from her mentor an old house near the French Quarter in New Orleans. There's just one catch: she must continue his long-abandoned dig of a prehistoric city beside the muddy banks of the Mississippi. Along with her Canadian friends-one a self-styled expert in "found music" and the other a gay man keen on plunging into the "voodoo scene" - plus a wild assortment of locals, Brenda ends up digging into what exactly distinguishes an American from a Canadian, a black from a white, and the living from the dead.

Featuring the ensemble plus special guests Doug Curtis, Andrew Moodie and Barbara Barnes-Hopkins.

Belet Huen, Somalia: a gun-running, drug smuggling stop between Ethiopia and Mogadishu, and home to members of the elite Canadian Airborne Regiment doing weird duty as "Canadian Peacekeepers."

Living among them was noted Canadian artist Allan Harding MacKay, who the Armed Forces had commissioned to document the humanitarian mission through painting and, most compellingly, video. Strange fate sends MacKay there just as the Canadian Military’s most infamous act – the torture and murder of a Somali teenager – begins to unfold.

"Poetry in motion" said the Globe & Mail of this multi-layered homage to the incandescent Mr. Cohen.

The ensemble reprises this play which features some 50 poems from early works like Death of a Lady's Man and The Spice Box of Earth, as well as an extended treatment of the novel Beautiful Losers. Along with its sultry yet aggressive movement, the hallucinatory stream of consciousness captures the erotic and sensual qualities of Cohen's finest poetic voice.

Put on your bell-bottoms and Greek sandals, then get set to revel in the sexy 60s as only Leonard can-and did.

13 years in the making - Paul Anderson's novel Hunger's Brides was published by Random House Canada in September, 2004.

Extensive information on the novel can be found on the Hunger's Brides web site.

Lyrical, sensuous, baroque, Hunger's Brides charts the course of a legendary obsession. A modern Canadian researcher tracks her quarry through a lost continent of voluptuous phantoms and dark hungers. Her subject, the incomparable 17th-century Mexican poet, Sister Juana Inés de la Cruz.

Nobel prize-winning poet, Octavio Paz calls Sor Juana "the greatest versifier of the Spanish language." She mastered virtually all the verse forms in use during her time. Also called America's first feminist, the Tenth Muse, Phoenix of the Americas... In short, a megastar.

Sor Juana Ines de la Cruz played by Denise Clarke

Nobel prize-winning poet, Octavio Paz calls Sor Juana "the greatest versifier of the Spanish language." She mastered virtually all the verse forms in use during her time. Also called America's first feminist, the Tenth Muse, Phoenix of the Americas... In short, a megastar.

Both captive and weaver of her own legend. Beautiful, haughty, rebellious, controversial, haunted. A mind for the ages, though perhaps not for a baroque convent. A bride of Christ, but whose greatest passion was her voracious hunger for learning.

Beulah Limosneros played by Elizabeth Stepkowski

The protagonist of Hunger's Brides. Twentieth-century Canadian researcher, whose study of Sor Juana veers out of control. At least according to her editor, Dr. Donald Gregory. To hear him tell it, what starts out as a defence of Sor Juana against 'the Scarabs,' ends up a lurid cross between novel of ideas and tell-all biography.

Dr. Donald Gregory played by Andy Curtis

Self-appointed 'editor' of Hunger's Brides. Former professor of Literature (recently dismissed for unprofessional conduct). At loose ends.

Narrator (mostly in Spanish) as read by Zaide Silvia Gutiérrez

Occasional lecturer at the Mexico City university now housed in the ex-convent of San Jeronimo, Sor Juana's 17th-century home. Also a medical doctor, "specializing in the treatment of Sor Juanitis." She is also an antidote, largely in Spanish, to Dr. Donald Gregory, himself something of a pill.

Carlos Siguenza y Gongora played by Andy Curtis

17th-century Mexican mathematician, astronomer, astrologer, minor poet, historian, chronicler. Invited by Louis XIV to come to Versailles in the capacity of Royal Cosmographer. New Spain's leading scholar and one of few in New Spain who might have been Sor Juana's intellectual equal. Also her friend of 25 years. Composed and delivered her funeral oration, since lost.

Father Antonio Nunez de Miranda played by Michael Green

In his day, probably New Spain's second-most powerful prelate. Spiritual director to both Sor Juana and the Archbishop of Mexico, a rabid misogynist who had the tiles of his residence changed upon learning a woman had walked across them.

Sor Juana, then, with too much imagination for her own good, must confess her most intimate doubts and sins to Father Nunez -- none other than the Chief Censor for the Holy Inquisition, and possessed of a photographic memory. Today, a candidate for canonization. Beulah might propose instead a cannonade.

Antonia played by Elizabeth Stepkowski (in English)
as read by Zaide Silvia Gutiérrez (in Spanish)

Sor Juana's mulatta secretary, slave, and forger. Her echo.

Silvio

Milanese Ambassador to the court of New Spain. Sexual predator. A gamesman.

Louise is a bitch. Louise has been dumped. Louise doesn't know she has been dumped. Arriving home after a tough day dispensing pop psychology on the radio - "Mental Minutes" if you will - Louise rushes about her groovy loft preparing for her fellah Bruce to arrive and kneel at her feet asking to marry her. When she finally gets the message that he can't make it over - ever again - her self absorbed world collapses. Booze and dope help her cope in this witty dance/drama that reveals even bitches have feelings.

An homage to the great playwright Edward Albee, Permission is an hour long compression ballet inspired by his great work, Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf. They are all there drinking, seducing, bashing away at one another in a wild dance of social and personal hell. Designed by artist Chris Cran, Permission is a kinetic jolt to the eye, the heart and the brain.

It's a world where women who can bleed are rare powerful creatures. Whore/surrogate, courtesan/commodity - the bidding wars to win their services elevates them to the level of pop stars in a ruined time.

Lav and Brenda are a very attractive couple. Lav is very sophisticated and he even helps Brenda decide what to wear. Brenda feels blessed. Then she finds a love note meant for Lav that worries her.

A ten minute 1940's radio drama called The Green Coupe gets some serious play on the air waves of eternity, forcing it's characters to complete their murderous activities over and over. Finally it's enough and the three occupants of the nasty love triangle desperately try to reverse the ending. A wild and wicked physical journey of blood, sweat and tears.
