Hosanna Tableau D'Hote Theatre to Present ANOTHER HOME INVASION

After the award-winning and critically acclaimed English-language Montréal Premiere of Michel Tremblay's Hosanna Tableau D'Hôte Theatre returns for its tenth season with a tour-de-force solo play by one of Canada's most celebrated authors; Another Home Invasion by Governor General Award winner Joan MacLeod makes its much-anticipated Québec premiere. Directed by Artistic Director Mike Payette and starring Dora Award nominated actress Deena Aziz, Another Home Invasion plays at le MAI (Montréal, arts interculutels) from March 9 to 26, 2016.

Written by one of Canada's most honoured contemporary playwrights, this haunting piece follows Jean, a woman living in the glory of age 80, whose husband, contrarily, is victim to the throes of Alzheimer's. First premiered in 2009, and having lauded productions on some of Canada's finest stages, Another Home Invasion has received national recognition and acclaim as an in depth and intense lens on issues surrounding our most honoured citizens; including rights to a happy, healthy, and safe environment during the golden years of life.

"The play, although told through the voice of one woman, involves the hapless, substance-abusing, middle-aged criminal we expect to find in it, but even after a return visit or two, the audience is asked if he is in fact the real threat to the home's occupants," remarks director Mike Payette on the importance of presenting this play. "Who, then, are the real perpetrators of the heartless betrayal of the elderly couple who lives here: who is it that's robbing them of their possessions, their security, their relationship, their family - their home?"

Another Home Invasion looks at the rise of intrusions in our society within our most intimate spaces and the perpetration of heinous crimes upon the aged, the disabled, and the helpless; Joan MacLeod's investigation of this world is as surprising as it is unsettling.
