Produced by Trevor Barrette with Jonathan Patterson
In association with Infinithéâtre
In partnership with Fierté Montréal
Developed in collaboration with Playwrights’ Workshop Montréal

WORLD PREMIERE! A new musical about friendship, love, and the art of creation

Set in present-day Montreal, two childhood friends and creative collaborators race against the clock to finish their latest project: a coming-of-age musical loosely based on their lives. But as they deep dive into the work, long-repressed truths rise to the surface and threaten their partnership. A sexy cautionary tale about writing what you know.

 

English and French surtitles for every performance.

Talkbacks with members of the cast and creative team after every performance starting Tuesday, June 17.

LISA'S NOTE 

“My not-so-guilty pleasure? Rom coms. And, in this new musical love story from one of Montreal’s most promising young artists, Trevor Barrette had me at hello! Bringing this world premiere to the Segal Centre stage during Pride Month is a fabulous way to cap off the season and show our devotion to our mission.”
