About this concert
IN ENGLISH Celebrated theatre-maker Robert Lepage returns to the NAC with an autobiographical journey through his childhood in a Quebec just beginning to awaken to its own promise. Unable to memorize a poem he must recite, Lepage uses the "memory palace" technique, assigning stanzas to the familiar rooms of his childhood home. With stagecraft that will take your breath away, 887 recreates the world of a young boy growing up in 1960s Quebec. EN ANGLAIS L'illustre créateur de théâtre Robert Lepage est de retour au CNA avec un survol autobiographique de son enfance, dans un Québec qui commençait tout juste à prendre conscience de ses possibilités. Ne parvenant pas à mémoriser un poème qu'il doit réciter, Lepage a recours à la technique du « palais de la mémoire », attribuant les différentes strophes du texte aux pièces familières de la maison de son enfance.
