Patricia Cano and Tomson Highway. THE (POST) MISTRESS/ZESTY GOPHER S’EST FAIT ÉCRASER PAR UN FRIGO by Tomson Highway (Pleiades Theatre/Théâtre français de Toronto). At the Berkeley Street Theatre (26 Berkeley). Patricia Cano is an amazingly entertaining performer.

Tomson Highway is justly revered for his contributions to Canadian theatre and literature, which range from the plays The Rez Sisters and Dry Lips Oughta Move to Kapuskasing to the novel Kiss of the Fur Queen. But his first artistic love was playing the piano, and it turns out the man is as ridiculously talented as a musician as he is a scribe

The (Post) Mistress is a musical play by Tomson Highway. The play has also been staged in a French version titled Zesty Gopher s'est fait écraser par un frigo and a Cree version titled Kisageetin, although The (Post) Mistress, a predominantly English show which retains some French and Cree lyrics, is the most widely produced version.

Start Date: October 12, 2016. End Date: November 6, 2016. UNQUESTIONABLY Canada’s greatest First Nations’ playwright and one of the most influential artists of his generation, TOMSON HIGHWAY returns to Toronto with his latest work, a one-woman musical starring the magnificent PATRICIA CANO, accompanied by Tomson himself on piano. The (Post) Mistress, known in French as Zesty Gopher s’est fait écraser par un frigo, tells the story of Marie-Louise Painchaud, postmistress of a town on the French River, who has the uncanny ability to read the village mail without opening a single envelope, and turn each letter into a magnificent song. A co-production with Pleiades Theatre and nominated for a 2015 Juno for Best Aboriginal Album. Who is it for? all-ages.
