Marie Brassard is a Quebec actress, author and theatre director living in Montreal. For many years her professional endeavors were closely linked with Robert Lepage. Under his direction, she participated along with other artists in the creation of several plays and films, among them The Dragons' Trilogy, Polygraph, The Seven Streams of the River Ota and Geometry of Miracles.
In 2001, she created her first solo production, Jimmy, within the framework of the Festival de Théâtre des Amériques, now Festival TransAmériques. In the meantime, she has produced six other works – The Darkness, Peepshow, The Glass Eye (with Louis Negin), The Invisible, Me Talking to Myself in the Future and Trieste – in which she has continued to experiment with technology and explore the many ways with which sound can be manipulated in theater. By interlacing voices and music and traversing the planes of reality, she leads audiences to a world where the boundaries between public and private dissolve and the relationship between human beings and technology becomes intimate. Her unique work, performed both in English and French, has made her a singular voice in contemporary theater, receiving widespread acclaim in many cities across America, Europe and Australia.
She is the artistic director of the production company Infrarouge. Biography
Elle créait en 2001 son premier spectacle solo, Jimmy, créature de rêve, dans le cadre du Festival de théâtre des Amériques. Il y eut par la suite trois autres créations, La noirceur, Peepshow et L’invisible, dans lesquelles elle poursuit ses expériences technologiques, explorant les manières possibles d’utiliser le son au théâtre. Entrelaçant les voix et les musiques, traversant les niveaux de réalité, elle nous mène dans un monde où les frontières entre privé et public s’estompent et la relation entre les êtres humains et la technologie devient intime. Son travail particulier, qui a fait d’elle une voix singulière dans le paysage théâtral contemporain, est présenté en anglais et en français et a été accueilli chaleureusement dans plusieurs villes d’Amérique, d’Europe et d’Australie. Elle est directrice artistique de la compagnie de production Infrarouge.
