An intimate and probing meditation on theatre, the attributes of imperfect memory, the roots of inspiration and the culture of our time, from the Canadian theatrical magician Robert Lepage. Lepage is the actor, director and creator behind some of the most imaginative theatre productions, including ethereal ruminations on Hiroshima, in The Seven Streams of the River Ota and on the destructive addictions behind Jean Cocteau and Miles Davis, in Needles and Opium. His talents stretch from staring in one-man shows to designing gigantic rock concerts for Peter Gabriel. Connecting Flights takes the readers through a wide spectrum of topics, delving into philosophical issues of time in Lepage’s productions and his concern with nationalism keeping a country’s culture from traveling beyond its borders for all the world to see. In conversation with Rémy Charest; Translated by Wanda Romer Taylor; Foreword by John Ralston Saul.
