Abstract
Recent studies on the work of Robert Lepage underline the centrality of confrontation with the Other in the theatre of this internationally known and acclaimed Quebec dramaturge, cineaste, actor and producer. Characterized by the contact, collision and mixing of languages, Lepage's theatre challenges audiences around the world forcing them to experience the between zone, that liminal space between, or outside, comfortable linguistic, cultural and geographical boundaries in which the Other is frequently no longer easily identifiable. From early productions such as Circulations in the 1980s to his most recent production, The Andersen Project , staging the Other has been a central preoccupation of the Lepage project. However, as the recent remake of The Dragons' Trilogy suggests, perceptions of the Other may change over time as the Other's place in society evolves. This article provides an overview of Lepage's theatre with emphasis on the importance of language in the representation of the Other and focuses particularly on The Dragons' Trilogy . It suggests that what was intended, and indeed perceived, to be a sympathetic, albeit stereotyped, portrayal of the immigrant in Canada and Quebec in the 1980s appears as a misstep in a new millennium and in a new Quebec in which immigrants, including immigrant writers, have found their own voice.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
