Alison Darcy has been acting since the age of eight, so at 31 you could say she's paid her dues and deserves to know where her next meal is coming from. Thankfully, Montreal's two permanent English theatres will both be helping fill her larder in the coming season. It was recently announced that Darcy will direct a new Montreal play at the Centaur. Real Estate by Allana Harkin is a late addition to the theatre's season, replacing Michel Tremblay's The Driving Force, originally scheduled for the November slot. (Centaur still hopes to mount that show at a later date under the direction of longtime Tremblay collaborator André Brassard.)
