Freeze is an allegorical comedy play that dramatizes the Great Ice Storm of '98 as a metaphor presaging “cooler” more inclusive times in Quebec compared to the separatist firestorms of earlier decades. Five quirky Montrealers, trapped in a power-outed duplex, butt heads in candlelight over love, language and politics, provoking us to ponder with laughter whether Montreal's “two solitudes” of the past has become a stereotype in this new century?
