Théatre du Reve SALON

November 7 @ 8:00 am - 5:00 pm

SUN. NOV. 8

@ 3:00 Eastern US

Mick Kinney & I are singing and playing LIVE (online)

in Théatre du Reve’s Salon

Celebrating the culture of Acadia –

Canada to Louisiana!

No matter what happens in our political lives, we will always need music, poetry, stories, and theatre to help us make sense of our world. If you’ve never been to a TdR Virtual Salon, you’re in for a treat! TdR sends out a signature cocktail/mocktail recipe for each Salon, plus a Spotify playlist to put you in the mood. It’s more than a play reading – it’s a party!

* Trio Vishten’s Emmanuelle LeBlanc will talk about the French Canadian music from Prince Edward Island that she and her sister Pastelle grew up hearing and playing.

 

This Salon will also feature works by Creole poets of color who wrote in French in
pre-Civil War Louisiana: Armand Lanusse, Pierre Dalcour, and Victor Séjour, three brilliant writers who captured the beauty and pathos of their era in romantic French verse and short stories. Actor/videographer Maxton Jones has turned those writings into video. Below, he works his magic on a scene from Sejour’s Le Mulâtre (The Mulatto).

 

 

And the Salon will close with a set of some of our favorite songs

~ Cajun ~ Creole ~ Zydeco ~

Come ready to two-step, waltz, and sing along!

Allons danser!!
