Victor '25 by Roger Vitrac, Alex Fancy and Tintamarre

February 2025. Family Night at One, Harmony Lane. Two well-to-do non-binary parents, their precocious child and their laid-back cat gather on Family Night in front of the Stargazer, a gigantic home theatre, to watch a 1927 surrealist comedy about Victor, a very badass child who does not want to live in his parents’ hypocritical world. The shocking, dreamlike evening is revealing for young Max, disturbing and by moments nightmarish for the parents. But all is well that ends well and Tintamarre’s VICTOR ‘25 is, in the words of Director Alex Fancy, «a celebration of comedy as a way of looking at our world in 2025». // Created by Alex Fancy and Tintamarre: Mount Allison’s bilingual theatre troupe // Running time: 70 minutes (one act)
