Drawing upon work presented at the 1999 ACTR meetings and situated within a decades-old debate about Canadian theatre, these four essays explore representations of the North in plays by southern and northern playwrights and theatre companies. The authors explore the history of Yukon's Nakai theatre, Quebec's "myth of the North," a popular play by a now forgotten prairie playwright, and images of the Inuit in plays by Inuit and non-Inuit. D'après le travail présenté a l'asemblée de l'ARCT en 1999, et situés dans un débat continue sur le théâtre canadien, ces quatres articles examinent les représentations du Nord dans des oeuvres théâtrales d'écrivains et de troupes venant du nord et du sud. Les auteurs examinent l'histoire du Théâtre Nakai du Yukon, le "mythe du nord" au Québec, une pièce populaire d'un auteur maintenant oublié et, finalement, des représentations de l'Inuit dans des pièces créées par des Inuits et des non-Inuits. |
