House Among the Stars - State Theatre Company of South Australia 2001

by Michel Tremblay

State Theatre’s newest production, House Among the Stars, from prolific French Canadian writer Michel Tremblay, is set in a log cabin in rural Quebec-“at the beginning of a beautiful evening in July.” In fact, it is set in three Julys- one in 1910, one in 1950 and a third, forty years on, in 1990. Three generations come to this place in Duhamel, among pines, overlooking a lake. Victoire, Josaphat and their son Gabriel are the first owners but Victoire is leaving for Montreal to marry a man who can provide for her children - the now grown Albertine and her brother Edouard who we see, returning in 1950, trying to patch their differences. Then comes their nephew Jean-Marc, perhaps speaking for the playwright himself, who has quit his university post to find solitude and reflect on the past, accompanied, at least for a time, by his gay lover Mathieu and his son Sebastien.
