NOT AMERICAN
novembre 13@20:00 - 22:00
| Combining drag, storytelling, song and physical comedy, NOT AMERICAN is a tour de force performance. In the span of 90 minutes, writer, director and performer Benjamin Larose portrays seven different characters, each one more unhinged than the previous. Through twists and turns, they lead the show’s main protagonist to question his core belief: “The only way to achieve real success is to become more American.”
NOT AMERICAN is an hilarious, outrageous and moving one-person show. It tells the story of a middle-aged artist who realises he has NOT achieved the fame he dreamed of as a dorky kid growing up in French-speaking Québec. Embodying both male and female, Québecois and American, and performing in both his native French and English, Larose shares with the audience an audacious yet intimately crafted exploration of middle-age and his own obsessive yearning to be American. After two successful runs at Chicago’s Steppenwolf Theater and The Den Theatre, NOT AMERICAN promises to be Montreal’s MUST-SEE drag theater event of the Fall! |
