–Bonnes BonnesA piece freely inspired by Jean Genet’s The Maids (Les Bonnes) – but we never perform it on stage. It plays on the background on a video, alongside CCTV (China Central Television), while four Chinese women make chili sauce, order dim sum, and talk about our different experiences and questions around internalized racism and our thoughts on China’s rise to power. Co-writers: Sophie Gee and Tamara Nguyen Residency at Théâtre Aux Écuries 2020-2022, presentation at Théâtre Aux Écuries, April 2023 With support from the Cole Foundation, Canada Council for the arts, Conseil des arts de Montréal, Wuchien Michael Than Foundation and Festival Transamériques Respirations. |
