Re:Union, a political play rooted in the Vietnam War, leads the nomination race for this year’s English Rideau Awards. An original work produced by Horseshoes & Hand Grenades Theatre, the show springs from the true story of Norman Morrison who, in 1965, immolated himself in Washington, D.C. in protest against the war. It’s nominated in six categories including Outstanding Production, Outstanding Director (Sean Devine, who is also the playwright), and twice for Outstanding Male Performance: Andrew Wheeler and Brad Long.
The nominations cover the period from Jan. 1, 2014 to June 30, 2015. This is the awards’ eighth year celebrating locally produced English and French professional theatre. Until now, the awards have been for shows during a calendar year; from now on, they will be for the theatre season running July 1 to June 30.
Other front runners in English theatre include Margo MacDonald’s solo show The Elephant Girls, a Parry Riposte production which debuted at this summer’s Ottawa Fringe Festival. It’s about a notorious female criminal gang in Victorian England. It’s up for production, director (Mary Ellis), female performance (MacDonald) and new work awards.
Vanity Project’s Hedwig and the Angry Inch, written by John Cameron Mitchell and Stephen Trask, is competing for both production and director (Stewart Mathews). Tim Oberholzer as Hedwig is up for male performer.
Other female performance nominees include Carolyn Hetherington in Woman Who Shout at the Stars, another fringe show, and Catriona Leger for Evolution Theatre’s Young Lady in White.
Design nominees include Martin Conboy for set and lighting for The Burden of Self Awareness (Great Canadian Theatre Company) and John Webber, also set and lighting for Re:Union.
On the French side where productions are fewer, five shows predominate. They include Théâtre la Catapulte’s Cinéma by emerging Ottawa playwright Mishka Lavigne. It’s nominated in six categories including production, new work and director (Caroline Yergeau).
F***ing Carl, a Théâtre 4.669 production by playwrights Louis-Philippe Roy and Caroline Yergeau, has five nominations including production, direction (Kevin Orr), and both male and female performances (the playwrights).
Other French frontrunners include the Théâtre de l’île production of Michel Tremblay’s classic À toi pour toujours ta Marie-Lou. It’s competing for production and several other awards.
Awards will be announced Sept. 27 at la Maison du Citoyen in Gatineau (prixrideauawards.ca).
