Abstract
The Queens, Normand Chaurette’s revisioning “explosion” of the “chorus of women” scene in IV.iv of Shakespeare’s Richard III (“I had an Edward, till a Richard kill’d him,” etc.), is the latest in a series of important Quebec plays to make it into English Canada by way of Linda Gaboriau’s sensitive translations. It is also the latest in a series of plays and productions in both Quebec and English Canada, ranging from Goodnight Desdemona to the Robert Lepage / Michel Garneau Shakespeare trilogy, that use or purposefully misuse Shakespeare as inspiration, point of departure or point of resistance.
