History

Jean-Marc Parent is a comedian from Quebec, Canada, also known as JMP. Originally from Saint-Jean-sur-Richelieu, he began his career as a social worker before being discovered at the festival Juste Pour Rire in 1988.  His first show, titled "L'Handicapé" or its English title, "The Disabled" was followed by a comedy duo partnership with Michel Barrett, before JMP returned to solo comedy in the 1990s.   JMP's specializes in long-form comedy, performing for large audience for hours at a time, often switching from scripted comedy to improv to close his shows.  These extended performances, themed celebrations and improv antics have invited substantial press coverage.   JMP has acted as a spokesperson for Opération Nez rouge, as well as hosting his own improv and animation comedy show "L'Heure JMP" on TQS and providing illustrations for the humor magazine Safarir. He continues to perform in comedy specials and events throughout Canada.

Roch
Her publisher forces Marianne to rewrite the manuscript of a novel she wrote and burned in a fit of anguish. Her obsession with her story where the characters she creates murder her own husband becomes overwhelming. She comes to believe he is leading a double life and she imagines the worst. As a matter of fact, her husband Robert is leading a double life: every day, at noon, for a year, he has locked himself up in a small hotel room to also write a novel.
