Intrepid Theatre 2012 Presenting Series

L’Orchestre d’Hommes-Orchestres Performs Tom Waits

Quebec City’s L’Orchestre d’Hommes-Orchestres (The One Man Band-Band) powerful tribute to the world of Tom Waits, in which six frenzied musicians use nearly 100 objects and invented instruments – from teacups to turkey-basters – to create madcap scenes of unbridled energy. This is more of a carnival show or musical circus than just a concert. Believe us, you’ve never seen Tom Waits performed like this before.

Joséphina

“A playful and poetic little jewel” all the way from Belgium, La Compagnie Chaliwaté’s  Joséphina is a shockingly beautiful, sexy, funny, and mysterious piece of physical theatre about a man and a woman: a woman who is both absent and omnipresent. Is it the story of a perfect, passionate couple, or a shattered one?  Between reality and fantasy the body and the word come together in a very intimate fashion, allowing poetic shifts and entanglements, and comical changes in direction in a moving and mysterious story of obsession, love and loss.

ONE THOUSAND CRANES

“A bright, hip show, complex and satisfying.” – LA Times
