Notes  

     Théâtre de l’Argument presented eight performances at the Festival Contre Courant 2015—an exhausting week! This included the Trilogie Mayenburg (Le Moche, Voir Clair, & Perplexe), which they had performed previously and the pizza cabaret Baby Comme Bach, which they performed three times. There were also play readings of three plays: Femme Non-Rééducable, Abattage Rituel De Gorge Mastromas (tomorrow's AHFF event), and Porno-Teo-Kolossal.

Femme Non-Rééducable went into full production by the theatre group, but Adèle did not appear in it. Abattage Rituel De Gorge Mastromas (tomorrow's event in the AHFF) also went into full production, with Adèle performing in it. Today's play reading Porno-Teo-Kolossal has not yet been produced as a full play by the theatre group.
