La Souillonne, Deusse: Monologue sur scène

From the author's website: "The dramatic monologue, La Souillonne, was such a tremendous success for its author, Norman Beaupré, that it prompted a friend of his to say, 'There must be a follow-up to this.' The author replied that he had not thought about it and that he did not think he had enough material in his creative imagination to write a sequel. However, after seeing the performance of the play twice at the Franco-American Heritage Center in Lewiston and seeing it again in Lamèque, New Brunswick this past summer performed to a sell-out crowd, he began to sift ideas in his mind especially once he heard sea stories by the performer, Marie Cormier's brother, Angelbert Paulin who had caught fish and crabs out in the open seas for some forty years. Beaupré now had at his disposition some materials about Acadians and the sea. He then set out to line up other topics such as, the snoops [les écornifleuses], the famished and the tell-it-alls [les défoncés et les paniers parcés], WWII and the ration [la ration et la guerre], the melting pot, the shoe shops, odd people [les gens de travers], old habits [les accoutumances] and our way of speaking [le parlement de not'e monde]."
