The Clawfoot and Hot Tub Interviews
Leah Sherman Productions
Something strange is happening in the calm suburb of Pleasant Acres. Olivia, a bit of a recluse, is trying to sell her clawfoot bathtub, but only men are making offers -- and not for buying the bathtub. From an aggressive handyman to a strung-out heavy metal drummer, this parade of randy strangers sends Olivia into the arms of level-headed Scott. But when things don't work out, and Scott tries selling his hot tub, only women are making offers -- and not for buying the hot tub…
Directed by Scott Humphrey.
Cast: Alyson Leah and Jesse Sherman.

Coming Soon
What if you entered an empty rehearsal hall and suddenly an audience appears? Joseph Ste-Marie brings his experimental scripted/improvised one-man show, This Show is Broken back to the stage! This remount blends the 2021 Digital Theatre production from the Montreal FRINGE Festival and the original 2015 production at the 2nd annual Shortstanding Festival. Ste-Marie must perform his show as he explores his life, struggles, missteps, and tries to show that it’s not too late to pursue your dreams…. However, Joseph is challenged to be honest with himself so his show can be authentic as possible without being blinded by ambition.
"Le Collectif Les Tisseuses s’est formé à partir de l’envie de rassembler des femmes et des personnes non binaires autour du jeu théâtral en décloisonnant les pratiques et les imaginaires. Il est composé de huit artistes aux origines, pratiques et vécus multiples.
Les Tisseuses ouvrent leur espace créatif avec une étape de la pièce Notre tour c’est quand?, une proposition scénique intimiste.
La pièce raconte l'histoire des funérailles de Pilar, la matriarche d'un quartier. On y retrouve des femmes aux horizons pluriels venues honorer la mémoire de celle qui a su entrelacer leurs existences en leur offrant la possibilité d’assembler leurs histoires. À travers ce moment de deuil, se tissent des liens qui transcendent les frontières de leur famille, de leur quartier et de leur pays, offrant un portrait poignant de la force des relations féminines et de la sororité.
En se rassemblant à la croisée des cycles de vies, les personnages que vous allez rencontrer s’adressent des questions millénaires, et cheminent au cœur de leurs vérités en nous rappelant qu’il n’est de refuge plus solide que celui de nos solidarités.
La pièce s’achèvera par un échange entre les artistes et le public, permettant de recueillir les impressions de ce dernier. Modéré par la directrice artistique du festival.
