Almost one year has passed since the death of Adam’s estranged father and his present melancholy has his family worried. When his ‘gay ol’ cousin’ Benny approaches him to talk about an upcoming memorial for his revered father, Adam, an English Lit. student, confesses that the cause of his despair is a lack luster fling with a girl from his class. Relieved, Benny decides to bring him out to a night on the town. Despite Adam’s protestations, he is dragged out to the Queen’s club, a drag bar run by the mischievous Robyn and the Queen’s fairy band. There, Adam meets Sebastian, a young aspiring actor, and he soon realizes why he has been having so many issues in the girl department… He decides to pursue this new and exciting relationship in secret, but as the romance blossoms, Adam becomes conflicted by the choices he is making and the past he has tried so hard to forget. It is then that he is confronted by the Ghost of his late father…

"Le Collectif Les Tisseuses s’est formé à partir de l’envie de rassembler des femmes et des personnes non binaires autour du jeu théâtral en décloisonnant les pratiques et les imaginaires. Il est composé de huit artistes aux origines, pratiques et vécus multiples.
Les Tisseuses ouvrent leur espace créatif avec une étape de la pièce Notre tour c’est quand?, une proposition scénique intimiste.
La pièce raconte l'histoire des funérailles de Pilar, la matriarche d'un quartier. On y retrouve des femmes aux horizons pluriels venues honorer la mémoire de celle qui a su entrelacer leurs existences en leur offrant la possibilité d’assembler leurs histoires. À travers ce moment de deuil, se tissent des liens qui transcendent les frontières de leur famille, de leur quartier et de leur pays, offrant un portrait poignant de la force des relations féminines et de la sororité.
En se rassemblant à la croisée des cycles de vies, les personnages que vous allez rencontrer s’adressent des questions millénaires, et cheminent au cœur de leurs vérités en nous rappelant qu’il n’est de refuge plus solide que celui de nos solidarités.
La pièce s’achèvera par un échange entre les artistes et le public, permettant de recueillir les impressions de ce dernier. Modéré par la directrice artistique du festival.
