Description: "Assorted Candies for the Theatre is a stage adaptation of Michel Tremblay's fourth book of autobiographical sketches, Bonbons Assortis / Assorted Candies, offering a rich and colourful cast of characters in this exquisite remembrance of childhood past in Montreal's Plateau Mont-Royal neighborhood. Much more than a mere adaptation of a prose memoir for the stage, in re-crafting his characters from the realm of thought and memory to the present action of the theatre, Tremblay generously reveals how its done."--Jacket.
