Napoleon Voyage
Studio 16, 1555 W. 7th, Vancouver Théâtre la Seizième presents the last show of its season with Napoléon Voyage, a production that has already enchanted Quebec. A ticket to a journey full of humour!
***In French with English surtitles on Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday***
En route for Cayo Coco, Jean-Philippe Lehoux relives his many journeys around the world : discovering Bosnia and its scars, working in an English hotel, losing himself in Japanese culture, and almost drowning in Norway. Awkward, nervous, Jean-Philippe dreams of conquering the world as one of its great travelers, but realizes that life has, alas, offered him a tourist visa only.
This autobiographical tale explores and confronts Generation Y’s permanent quest for adventure. While navigating through Bertrand Lemoyne’s musical universe, Jean-Philippe (proud member of Generation Y and winner of the Prix Gratien-Gélinas) conveys with humour and derision the adventures in which, he must admit, he looked more like a fool than a hero…
