Add to basketMay 1953. The Empress of France sets sail from Montreal. On the pretext of attending the celebrations marking the coronation of Queen Elizabeth II, an important mafioso leaves for England where he secretly plans to live in exile with his two sons. Aboard this floating palace in the middle of the ocean, the petty lord of the Montreal underworld must face the most important decision of his dubious career: will he sacrifice his youngest son for a safe-conduct?
Le Voyage du couronnement, co-produced by Theatre du Nouveau Monde in Montreal and Théatre du Trident in Québec City, was nominated in the Best New Play category at the 1996 ‘Soirée des Masques’ presented by the Académie québécoise du théatre.
Cast of 6 women and 8 men
Québec playwright Michel Marc Bouchard emerged on the professional theatre scene in 1985.

Several of his works have been adapted into films, notably Lilies (1996), directed by John Greyson, and Tom at the Farm (2013), directed by Xavier Dolan.
Throughout his career, Bouchard has received numerous accolades, including the Governor General’s Performing Arts Award for Lifetime Artistic Achievement (2023), the Prix Athanase-David (2021)―Quebec's highest literary honour―the National Order of Quebec (2012), and the Order of Canada (2005).
