This Holiday Season HABIBI'S ANGELS Are Back By Popular Demand!
by BWW News Desk - December 17, 2020
Profound, poetic, and deliciously quirky—The play is a living x-ray of Montreal that lays bare its foundations, ancient and modern. A meta-experiment on the collectivity with contrasting feminist visions. From its outermost shell—a volley of letters between writers that are hired to write a piece to be performed by women of colour—to its innermost core—a plot to destroy The Machine—the play's true target is tokenism. All of this in a city that can't even align its streets with the four points of a compass! Audience be warned: you're invited to a scratchy celebration of Montreal.
