THE PLOT is part téléthéâtre, part supercut. The performance features three people reiteratively telling each other about a hypothetical movie plot that also involves three characters: the Protagonist, the Writer, and the Voice Actor/Dancer. The movie plot is a psychological thriller and revenge fantasy involving artistic collaborators who become competitors and lovers. Miscommunication, desire, and consent emerge and disappear.
The Plot was presented at Centre Clark (Montréal, 2024) and Écart (Rouyn Noranda, 2025)
