A production by Théâtre Cercle Molière.

Written by Lise Gaboury-Diallo.

‍Witness the remarkable life of Pauline Le Goff Boutal, a woman ahead of her time. A prolific figure in the arts in Winnipeg, she flourished as both an illustrator and a painter. Her passion for theatre led her to dedicate over 40 years to the Cercle Molière, including 27 years as its director, from 1941 to 1968.

Imagine being offered a special gift — a small, precious talisman meant to guide one through a life as unpredictable as it is extraordinary. A journey, unmistakably feminine, filled with twists and turns. Scenes unfold like vivid paintings: sometimes joyful, sometimes dramatic. And, little by little, a portrait emerges — not just of a life lived, but of a woman playing the leading role in her very own play… a long-running production she simply called life.

Ages 13+
