The Georgia Straight proudly sponsors Après Moi and The List

Ruby Slippers Theatre presents a double bill—Après Moi and The List—at Studio 16 (1555 West 7^th Avenue) from January 27 to February 1. Performances start at 8 p.m. each night, with additional performances at 1 p.m. on January 31 and February 1.

Après Moi and The List are English translations of two French-Canadian plays dealing with love, loss, compassion, and memory.

Après Moi is a play by Christian Begin that tells six versions of the same story. In a motel off Route 117, three rooms are in use. In the first room, a couple commits adultery for the first time. In the next room, a couple has sex for the last time, and in the final room, a lonely man wants to die. This production is directed by Diane Brown and stars Vancouver actors Scott Bellis, David Bloom, Jennifer Lines, Chirag Naik, and Dawn Petten.

The List by Jennifer Tremblay tells the story of a woman who may be culpable in the death of her neighbour. This production is directed by Jack Peterson and stars France Perras. Both productions feature set and lighting design by John Webber, costumes by Drew Facey, and sound design by Mishelle Cuttler.

Tickets to the double-bill are $18.50 to $23 ad can be purchased online in advance.
