ROBERT LEPAGE
One of the world’s greatest theatremakers turns his
eye to the most difficult subject of all: himself.
Theatre is the “grand sport of remembering,” says
Robert Lepage. This dazzling investigation of
memory — how it makes and unmakes us — transports
us into the echoing chambers of his own recollected
past. Beginning in his childhood home at 887 Avenue
Murray in Quebec City and ricocheting across
decades, Lepage’s own tale proves inseparable from
the dramatic events of the half century in which it
plays out.

Universally acclaimed for the scale of his theatrical
imagination—and on stage in Melbourne for the first
time—Lepage proves once again a master of the
grand image, while channelling his most intensely
personal story yet.
