Parce que Why Not?

A bilingual improv comedy show about life in Montreal—where the French isn’t always perfect, the English isn’t always fluent, and everyone is just trying to make it to the orange-line transfer.

Parce que Why Not? brings together a hilarious cast of performers in a high-energy night of franglais-fueled scenes inspired by real Montreal moments:

STM chaosOrange conesBilingual breakupsAwkward accents

…and all the weird beauty of living in a city split between deux langues.Whether you say “On va au dep” or “We’re going to the dépanneur”, you’ll feel right at home.No need to speak perfect French or English. Just bring your laughter.
