Once A Flame
Once a Flame tells the harrowing story of the defiant Black slave Marie Joseph Angélique who was executed for arson in Old Montreal in 1734. This one act play recalls the events that took place before and after her trial.

The play explores the plight of cerebral palsy victims trapped in a Zolaesque sweatshop that masquerades as a rehabilitation center. The entire play takes place in the men's toilet, one room the CP patients can be themselves in. The playwright, himself a victim of cerebral palsy, shows us that even CP victims get bored with rug weaving and block making and folding boxes.
