Our goal
We regularly support independent projects at various stages of their development. We organize free public presentations at the end of a work-in-progress residency, to create a connection between the audience and the artists. Discover them throughout the 2025-2-26 season.
L’Âge est un Feeling
Mainstage audience
Siona Gareau-Brennan is currently working on the translation of Age is a Feeling, a solo performance by Haley McGee. Accompanied by artist and director Marie-Claire Marcotte, Siona invites you to attend a presentation showcasing the first stage of the creative process. The presentation will be followed by a discussion with the artists.
Age is a Feeling is a solo project by Ontario-based creator Haley McGee, which explores the infinite possibilities of changing one’s path throughout life. Its forma, a series of randomly selected scenes determined by the audience, adds to the uniqueness of the piece. In this independent project, Siona explores several approaches linked by one central question: how can a personal project be translated and reimagined in order to make it one’s own?
Following the awarding of the Professional Development Award by the ATFC and the National Theatre School (NTS), and her participation in the Exploring Practices: Introduction to Theatre Translation workshop at Playwrights’ Workshop Montréal, Siona Gareau-Brennan will complete a first draft of the translation. She will also take part in several workshops in collaboration with the NTS, allowing her to deepen her work in preparation for a residency with la Seizième, leading toward the first French-language production of Age is a Feeling.
