STOP…
GO-ON Productions/Nadine Thouin
                       
Internationally acclaimed for her boldness and creativity, Montrealer Nadine Thouin returns to Shanghai with Stop…a semi-autobiographical account of her 26 year trail-blazing career. In this piece, Thouin's body is hard-wired to some invisible but potent power source. Audiences get a chance to zoom closer to her throbbing heart through a camera lens that stares into her eyes, slides down her throat, feels her guts. Thouin is truly something to behold.

I, Claudia is considered one of Canada's best new classics of recent years.
