As of 2009 the National Arts Centre (NAC) is celebrating its 40th anniversary. In honour of this momentous occasion it has introduced a stellar collection of upcoming and current performances. The forerunner for this celebration, “The Drowsy Chaperone,” took the stage Oct. 14 and concluded on Halloween night.
NAC gets hit by Elephant Wake
Joey Tremblay’s clearest memory of his childhood in a diminishing western- Canadian French town is of the paper-mache elephant his grandmother made, being maliciously run over by a group from a neighbouring English town.
The incident had a profound effect on the young Tremblay who considers it the end of his childhood and the moment of his loss of innocence.
But it inspired An Elephant Memory, an autobiographical story that Tremblay adapted into the fictitious play Elephant Wake in which he also stars.
