About the Performance

"You can hear some things when you pretend not to listen."– Jean Claude

What do you do when you’re the last surviving member of a community? Produced originally as a Fringe Theatre production, a full-length version of Elephant Wake was commissioned and premiered by Globe Theatre in 2008, complete with a visually stunning papier mache townscape. Elephant Wake is a provocative, compelling character study about the last man left in Ste. Vierge, a defunct Francophone town and the prosperous nearby English town of Welby in Saskatchewan.

"This is a memorable and remarkable piece of character driven visual theatre which you will feel privileged to have experienced." – The Stage (London)
