Jonathan Taylor Productions announces Jean-Paul Sartre's The Respectable Prostitute directed by Lisa Forrell. The production opens at The Playground Theatre on 21 May, with previews from 20 May, and runs until 6 June.
The Playground Theatre has announced its early Summer season with three very different shows, traveling from ancient Greece, to 1940s America, to 1980s Paris. The season opens with Fragments, which pieces together a long-lost Euripides play from pieces of papyrus, followed by The Respectable Prostitute, where powerful people spread false truths for their personal ambition and closes with Blue Electric directed by Hugh Hudson, who directed the 1981 film Chariots of Fire.
'No Exit' itself is a wonderful source material, and it was intriguing to hear Live Garra Theatre's plans to update and add an escape room element to the famous play. I walked into this show excited to see a new, modern twist on one of my favourite plays. Instead, I walked out incredibly disappointed.

Taking the lead in Exchange Theatre's thrilling political adaptation of Jean-Paul Sartre's classic The Flies is French actress Meena Rayann (Game of Thrones, HBO; Hilda, Odds On Productions 2019; multi-award winning No Love Lost, Intelligent Ink Films) as the downtrodden Electra and in his professional debut Samy Elkhatib will appear as vengeful brother Orestes.
ITA was the first to acquire the rights to Sartre's script The Freud Scenario. Freud will be staged by actors from FC Bergman and the ITA ensemble. FC Bergman is handling the adaptation. French philosopher Jean-Paul Sartre wrote The Freud Scenario at the end of the 1950s, at the request of Hollywood director John Huston. However, the two got into an argument and since then, the extensive script has remained untouched. Freud will premiere at International Theatre Amsterdam on Sunday 22 September 2019. The performance will then travel to Antwerp. It is a collaboration between International Theater Amsterdam and Toneelhuis.

In Los Angeles, a $4,000,000 car roaring past hungry, homeless people is not a rare sight - for most people, it is simply a fact of life. We are a society in which the dichotomy of ultra-wealthy and absolutely-destitute is accepted, even to the brink of resenting poor and idolizing rich.

DanceHouse will present the world premiere of Kidd Pivot's Revisor, February 20-23, 2019 at 8pm at the Vancouver Playhouse (now sold out). In their third collaboration, Kidd Pivot Artistic Director Crystal Pite and Electric Company Theatre Co-Founder Jonathon Young join forces to create a wildly innovative dance/theatre hybrid, mixing classic farce and the forces of radical change to craft a fizzing concoction that confounds expectations and inverts the official order. The bold physicality of Pite's choreography for eight dancers embodies the eviscerating wit of Young's script, recorded by some of Canada's finest actors.
