The Maison Théâtre presents ATTENTION: FRAGILE and ARCHIPEL for the holidays
Two shows open to the whole family during the holidays
First, from November 30 to December 20, it is the two characters of ATTENTION: FRAGILE who will take the stage. This crazy comedy from Samsara Théâtre, in co-production with L’Arrière Scène, is the brainchild of Liliane Boucher and Jean-François Guilbault, and is aimed at young audiences aged 5 to 10. Then, from December 27, 2022 to January 8, 2023, comes ARCHIPEL, a work full of delicacy and poetry in which flesh-and-blood characters and a constellation of inventive puppets mingle. A brand new creation by the company L’Illusion, Théâtre de marionnettes, it is aimed at kids from 3 to 6 years old.
Two dates will be offered to audiences who are sensitive or simply not comfortable with the usual conventions of the theatre. These sensorially adapted performances will take place on December 10 for ATTENTION: FRAGILE and January 6 for ARCHIPEL.

ATTENTION: FRAGILE – Clown theatre
Two characters are delivered on stage all packed. On the box of one is written “attention” and on that of the other, “fragile”. Much like the first man and woman in the age of online ordering, this bubble-wrapped duo becomes familiar with their space and language, and discovers a catalogue of objects more tempting than each other. While the first snaps his fingers to order them in a frantic way, his companion has fun with the creative possibilities of the materials she has at hand. Alas, the many boxes are piling up and the space is shrinking more and more…
ARCHIPEL – A theatrical journey
Somewhere in the middle of time, three star sisters have a taste for adventure. Curious and intrepid, they begin a journey in the heart of a surprising archipelago that they have fun creating according to their imagination. On these unusual islands, they will meet fantastic, crunchy and wacky creatures, which will lead them, each time, a little further in the discovery of themselves.
