Sex, Drugs...and a lack of Rock 'n' Roll
by Isabelle-Ann Charlebois

Let’s talk about sex, and watch puppets have some.

Les Enrobantes, the last play of the Trident season directed by Bertrand Alain, is one that deals with who we are, what we want and what we can bring to each other in every way...if you know what I mean. 

The stage is once again superbly organized. There are some musicians on house-right and there is a big wagon on the left.  The wagon opens to reveal Freud’s home and later on it becomes a whorehouse.  In the middle, there is a whore’s dressing table. Here exquisite verbal exchanges occur.
