The Adobe Rose Theatre Presents: Bonjour, La, Bonjour by Michel Tremblay

The Adobe Rose Theatre
Santa Fe, NM


Sales have ended for this event.


Bonjour, Là, Bonjour is a story of self-actualization, of a young man (Serge) asserting himself amidst the maelstrom of his familys dysfunction. Recently returned after three months abroad, Serges two hypochondriacal aunts, a deaf father, and three of his older sisters  an adulteress, an addict, and a letch  seize upon him, expecting him to save themselves and the family from collapse. Meanwhile, Serges fourth sister waits in the wings for her own liberation.

Michel Tremblays play is presented in a non-linear style, with dialogue and scenes overlapping, sometimes in discord sometimes in harmony. In a Broadway World review, the structure is likened to a symphony, introducing themes and variations, changing harmonies, and weaving a rich tapestry that provides a portrait of a dysfunctional family.

Directed by Wendy Chapin

She would like to thank the amazing and brilliant Wendy Chapin with whom she has studied for the past couple of years for giving her the opportunity to work with this unbelievably talented cast and crew.

ALEXANDRA RENZO - is so excited to be apart of the wildly fantastic Adobe Rose Family. First performing professionally at the age of 15, she chose life as her conservatory. Following her feet across the world with purpose and pleasure  consistently curious and humbled  she came to realize that to be a true storyteller you must ask why certain stories arent being told. But to be a great storyteller, you must listen. A Eugene Lang College, The New School for Liberal Arts graduate; an IHP: Re-thinking Globalization alum, a LAByrinth Theatre Company Acting Fellow, an Atlantic Theatre Co. Alum, a tanguero; an Eduardo Galeano fiend; Doula; sushi chef; actress, writer and producer. She is the Artistic Associate of Vertigo Theatre Co. in NYC, the associate producer for Symphonics Live; co-creator and creative director of Willow and Fire Productions  but all that really matters is she now happily calls New Mexico home.

ANN ROYLANCE - Ann's varied professional career has included television, musical theatre, plays and clubs  from D.C. to New York to Sydney to L.A., to Santa Fe. She has worked with such notables as Stephen Sondheim, Hal Prince, Mary Tyler Moore, Kathy Bates, Brian Dennihy, Bob Newhart, Julie Harris... and other wonderful talents. Her introduction to Santa Fe theatre was as a teenage boy in The Shakespeare Society's Midsummer Night's Dream, and she has been seen at the Santa Fe Playhouse dancing with a ghost in I Hate Hamlet, playing a Granny in Moon Over Buffalo, 2 Benchwarmers, and once again a Teenager in Kimberly Akimbo. It's an honor to be included in this delightful cast in this beautiful new theater under the direction of the amazing Wendy Chapin! (and her dog Wu)
