Seeker
Acclaimed at its premiere in 2021, this visionary work transports audiences to the year 2250, inside a military base in Colorado.
Lomond, a Seeker with the ability to access human memories, is recruited for a top-secret mission that forces him to work alongside his ex-wife. Together, they must confront their personal wounds while unraveling a mystery that could forever alter the fate of humanity.
Winner of the Prix Michel Tremblay for Best Play, Marie-Claude Verdier’s piece skillfully blends speculative science fiction with deeply human drama, exploring themes of memory, identity, and a community’s responsibility in shaping its own history.
Presented in English for the first time through Alexis Diamond’s translation, this intimate production, directed by Centaur Associate Artist Rebecca Gibian, features two outstanding performers: Bénédicte Bélizaire, making her Centaur debut, and Andrew Shaver, well known to Montréal audiences.
Seeker offers a compelling reflection on memory, truth, and humanity’s struggle for survival in a future as unsettling as it is fascinating. Book your tickets online now.
