Invite Grandma and Grandpa! And why not your cousin the artist, and his little sister who doesn’t go anywhere without her plush dinosaur? Because, yes, the whole family can safely attend and participate in this lively outdoor dance-theatre performance choreographed by Hélène Langevin!

The company Bouge de là revives a segment from its acclaimed show Through My Eyes in a format specially designed for outdoor performance. Four performers in crazy stretchy costumes invade the space and form a kaleidoscope of colours and movements. Scattered, hatted, clustered together, the joyful quartet explores the geometry of bodies, moving from the “very symmetrical” to hilariously chaotic gestures. After their breathtaking performance, come strut your stuff on the open-air dance floor! Inclusive and festive.

For those based in Ottawa, our show will also take place there in the afternoon! Select your choice of performance when you register.

Post-show activity

Build your own kaleidoscope!

After each performance, children are invited to a craft activity offered by our friends at the Centre d'exposition l'Imagier and led by the talented Valérie Trudel.  

For everyone, ages 5+

Duration: 45 minutes
