"THREE TALL WOMEN" BY EDWARD ALBEE • MAY 8-12, 2024
Theatre Morin Heights presented 6 sold out performances at Chalet Bellevue to rave reviews! "Three Tall Women" by Edward Albee was awarded the Pulitzer Prize for Drama in 1994. Thank you to our fabulous cast and crew. And thank you to our loyal audience.
Under the skilled direction of Noel Burton, three talented local actresses embodied and embraced the challenging roles of this 1994 Pulitzer Prize winning play to deliver thoughtful and thought-provoking performances. As the story evolves, the protagonist, an imperious, acerbic 92-year-old woman, takes the audience along on her personal ride as she reflects on her life with a mixture of shame, regret, pleasure and satisfaction.
Bravo to the cast of Three Tall Women Sarah Vanhove, Alessandra Piazza Guindon, Noni Stuart and Corina Lupu.
HAVE A HEART" BY DAVID SHERMAN • October 18- 22, 2023
A BIG SHOUT OUT TO THE ENTIRE CAST AND CREW FOR LIVING BY THE MOTTO "THE SHOW MUST GO ON"! AND ON IT DID DESPITE SOME OF THE CHALLENGES FACING OUT TIMES. BRAVO!
Theatre Morin Heights was delighted to present “Have a Heart” written by local playwright David Sherman and directed by Noel Burton. Originally premiered at Montreal’s Centaur Theatre in 2006, this dark comedy navigates a father’s experience with heart disease and his family’s conflicting responses. Quick-witted and poignant, the story takes the audience along for the ride as the characters face issues related to aging, a fragile health care system and finding one’s place in the world.
Bravo to actors Alessandra Piazza Guindon, Steve Gillam, Jacklyn Laflamme and Noel Burton! And special thanks to actors Brian Anderson and Bessie Athanasopoulos!
"HANSARD" BY SIMON WOODS • APRIL 26-30, 2023
CONGRATULATIONS TO OUR CAST AND CREW FOR A SPECTACULAR, THOUGHT-PROVOKING AND EMOTIONAL PRESENTATION OF HANSARD!
Hansard, which premiered at England’s National Theatre in 2019, examined one family's drama set in the heart of the divergent and divisive Thatcher-era politics that still ring true today. The show ran from April 26 to 30 with 6 perfomances enjoyed by sold out crowds.
Simon Woods, the playwright, explains that “The play takes place around the moment of the passing of the Local Government Act which contains this section: Section 28. A legislative designation for a series of laws across Britain that prohibited the "promotion of homosexuality" by local authorities.
Noel Burton and Corina Lupu returned to the Theatre Morin Heights stage in this two-hander that crackled with their signature chemistry. He’s on about the fox again; it’s destroying his yard. She’s still on about his politics; they’re destroying her country. The fox and the politician — it could be one of Aesop’s fables.
"PERFECT TIMING" BY KRISTI KANE • October 19-23, 2022
This farcical romp kept the audience on the edge of their seats and in stitches with laugher. A big shout out and thanks to our great ensemble cast, crew, our many volunteers, sponsors, the municipality of Morin-Heights and, of course, to our theatre’s loyal audience. Another sold out success! It takes a village!
