The Bald Soprano

By Eugène Ionesco

Our community production this year will be The Bald Soprano by Eugène Ionesco.

The characters and their dialogue don’t seem to make any sense – it’s so FUNNY – just like in real life! 

In almost 40 years of existence, La Troupe du Jour has only produced one play from the absurd theatre canon (Waiting for Godot, 1997).

Ionesco is one of the most important playwrights of the 20th century and the production of his seminal play has been long awaited. 

Ian C. Nelson portrait

Furthermore, this style of theatre was one of the late Ian C. Nelson‘s favourites. Ian contributed greatly to the development of La Troupe and also led the Writers’ Circle for many years. This production will be dedicated to his memory.

This play has a duration of approximately 70 minutes, without an intermission.

With English surtitles. CLICK HERE to learn more about surtitles.

Flex Pass

This year, instead of selling subscriptions which are more complicated to purchase and not very flexible, we’re trying something new, a Flex Pass! 

Purchase any 4 tickets (do not need to be the same price) and you will automatically receive a 20% discount!

With the flex pass you also have the choice to purchase 1 ticket (for one person) to see all 4 shows, 2 tickets for 2 shows or 4 tickets for 1 show.

***The Flex Pass can not be used to purchase tickets for Little Pea. Those must be purchased separately. CLICK HERE to be redirected to that page.***

Tickets are exchangeable as long as there are seats left.

How to buy your flex pass

  1. Select the tickets you want for this show or on the main menu at the top of the page, hover over the word Season to display the drop-down menu and select your first show.
  2. Once finished, if applicable, hover over Season again and select your next show.
  3. Continue like this till you have selected all the tickets you want to purchase. Once you’ve selected a minimum of 4 tickets (not including for Little Pea) you’ll see the 20% automatically deducted.
  4. When finished click on the proceed to checkout button at the bottom to complete your order with a payment.
