Helen's Necklace
by Carole Fréchette
Translation by John Murrell
Directed By Vanessa Porteous

May 7 - 17, 2008
Joyce Doolittle Theatre @ the Pumphouse

2140 Pumphouse Ave SW

Helen's Necklace is a contemporary exploration of loss and hope, and - set in an unnamed Middle Eastern city - deals explicitly the western world's indifference towards the plight of this tumultuous and war-ravaged territory. This is a poetic, hopeful and touching play about personal and cultural loss.

In 1996, Eve Ensler created The Vagina Monologues, a massive worldwide hit that won widespread audience and critical acclaim, enjoyed numerous star-studded performances, and became the theatrical poster-child for female empowerment. When women gathered to chant the 'C' word, or considered what their vaginas might wear or say, this small dramatic step became a giant leap for all womankind…or so we thought.
