===============================
887 is a journey into the realm of memory. The idea for this project originated from the childhood memories of Robert Lepage; years later, he plunges into the depths of his memory and questions the relevance of certain recollections. In this era of digital storage, mountains of data and virtual memory, how is theatre, an art based on the act of remembering, still relevant today?

In a story somewhere between a theatre performance and a conference, Robert Lepage reveals the suffering of an actor who—by definition, or to survive—must remember not only his text, but also his past, as well as the historical and social reality that has shaped his identity.
