Tweet tweet

A contemporary circus show performed in pairs, Tweet Tweet is intended for toddlers aged 0 to 3 and the adults who accompany them. True to circus tradition, the show is performed in a circular space, a magical tree which includes two nests with two wooden swings suspended from its branches.

From the nests, the performers use ropes attached to the trunk to move and twirl up into the tree canopy, then land on the ground.

To their liking, the public sits or lies down on the large forest floor placed under the branches of the tree. An enchanting spectacle that is sure to delight young and old alike!

For 2 years old and up.

La fuite de l’hippocampe

Since the dawn of time, humans have been fascinated by the phenomenon of dreams.

As part of this immersive theatrical installation for children, two dreamers-researchers want to learn more about paradoxical sleep — this precise moment when dreams occur.

The public is invited to wander freely in this laboratory of dreams which engages all of the spectator’s senses: soundscapes, dreamlike images, luminous textures, miniature worlds and surprising encounters are there.

Thanks to the improbable fusion of several techniques of visual art, mechanical art, media arts, shadow theater and puppets, this experience will stimulate the imagination of dreaming spectators.

For ages 4 and up.

L’écho de l’écume

Starting April 1st, proof of vaccination will no longer be required for members of the audience. The mask is still mandatory for everyone until June 30, 2022. We will also maintain physical distancing between groups in our spaces until further notice. More information.

L’écho de l’écume is a little eulogy to joy that proposes to bring visual arts on stage. In an island universe that tastes the salt air and the wind of the sea, two tumultuous and bewitching women deploy a real small art gallery on a sea journey background. Punctuated by movement, nuggets of poetry and a revisited repertoire of a capella sailors’ songs, their large frescoes painted live evoke the sea: its movement, its breathing, its storms and its lulls, like a sweet and fiery allegory of the inner landscapes that inhabit them.

For 2 and a half to 6 years old.

Le Trésor

One rainy day, two children — a brother, a sister, and their cat Piano — are stuck inside, their noses stuck to the windows. Boredom quickly gives way to creativity, which magically unfolds before the eyes of the audience. The trio’s creations offer a lucid, poetic, and touching vision of childhood.

Choreographer Pierre-Paul Savoie has drawn on the repertoire of Quebecois song to create THE TREASURE, a dance performance for children that oscillates between passion and poetry, between gentleness and candour. THE TREASURE takes a luminous look at childhood and at the joy, freedom, and spontaneity of play.
