Félix Poutré: Drame historique en quatre actes

In the shadowed streets of 19th‑century Montreal, a clandestine group of Patriots gathers under a veil of night. Their whispered plans for "vengeance and liberty" echo through a dim underground chamber, where weapons hang like silent witnesses and loyalties are tested. Among them, a charismatic leader known only as Cardinal coordinates intelligence from across the border, while a nervous young lawyer and a determined farmhand add both urgency and hope to the cause.

Yet not all is as it seems. A cunning infiltrator, disguised as an ally, maneuvers the conspirators with false assurances, plotting to betray them for a promised reward. The tension builds as the conspirators debate whether the broader public is ready for uprising, and as the promise of American support flickers on the horizon. Listeners are drawn into a world of secret codes, hidden doors, and the fragile spark of revolution, setting the stage for the drama that follows.
