THREE ESSENTIAL PIECES TO AWAKEN YOUNG CONSCIENCES

LE MUSÉE DE LA FAMILLE

L’eau du bain

From 8 years old – September 23 to 25, 2022

Info: https://www.maisontheatre.com/spectacle/le-musee-de-la-famille/

In this performance featuring a real family, L’eau du bain knocks down the fourth wall and questions, with the audience, family ties. They invite spectators into the intimacy of everyday life shared between children and their parents. Biographical performance in which the family emerges as a unique work that unfolds in this museum with great pleasure and freedom.

J’AI JAMAIS…

Youtheatre

From 12 years old – November 1 to 6

Info: https://www.maisontheatre.com/spectacle/j-ai-jamais/

Teens will be served this fall with J’ai jamais… , a solo performance filled with magical realism carrying the torments of adolescence at arm’s length, in which Éléonore Loiselle occupies the stage in a masterful way. 

TONNE DE BRIQUES

Samsara Théâtre

Ages 8 to 12 – November 17 to 27, 2022

Info: https://www.maisontheatre.com/spectacle/tonne-de-briques/

A true look behind the scenes, Tonne de briques is a large playground where a mother, father and daughter have fun transposing their own roles to create a play. Between fiction and documentary, the play blurs the boundary between reality and imagination. Real life becomes theatre and this family reveals the sometimes chaotic beauty of the bonds that unite its members.
