Artistic Direction: Mélanie Demers
Its title serving as a promise, Confession Publique explores ambiguity and paradox, probes the noble and the vulgar, oscillates between grace and brutality. Choreographer Mélanie Demers turns her trusted collaborator Angélique Willkie into her muse. Together, these two kindred spirits explore the act of telling others about yourself without reserve. The result is a hard- hitting solo show, where anecdotes become painful secrets and the body reveals as much as words, if not more. Interpretation Angélique Willkie avec la participation d’Anne-Marie Jourdenais Direction of rehearsals Anne-Marie Jourdenais Dramaturgy Angélique Willkie Original music Frannie Holder Additional music excerpt from The Fairy Queen, composed by Henry Purcell and sung by Angelique Willkie Scenography Odile Gamache Lighting Claire Seyller Costums Elen Ewing Technical management Hannah Kirby Thanks Dominique Sarrazin Remerciements Éléonore Loiselle Teaser production Stefan Verna
