    Host Jimmy Blais discusses Cult Play with playwright Scout Rexe and Dramaturg Fatma Sarah Elkashef.

    Cult Play is having its world premiere with Imago Theatre in Montreal in October, 2025, before it travels to Halifax in 2026.

    ****

    What would you do if the life you always dreamed of came at a price you never expected?

    Alex meets a captivating woman who is everything she’s ever wanted. Taylor opens the door to a thrilling new world... but what if it’s all a trap?

    Cult Play immerses the audience in Alex’s journey and the seductive power of belonging. In revealing her dark archive, Alex invites you to step into a thought experiment that questions the boundaries between voyeur and participant.

    Queer, enticingly playful and unapologetically bold, Cult Play is a multimedia solo show that explores the complex interplay of desire and deception, complicity and choice.

    On a hot Montreal summer night, the air hangs heavy with regret. Is forgiveness possible?

Now, in a crumbling abandoned warehouse where they once laughed and drank cheap wine, the pair must now reckon with the darkest parts of themselves in order to find each other again.

    Scorpio Moon is a love story about friendship that explores the complexities of race, queerness, art, and money.
