The summer that sang

All audiences: Puppet, shadow and image theater.

The show has been specially designed for children aged 8 and over and older audiences.

Produced by Marie-Ève Fontaine and Flammèche Théâtre

A crow, carried by the breeze, flies over the mountains, the valley and finally the river. It guides you to the little house with green shutters at the end of the Petite-Rivière road. There, you'll find Gabrielle, with her bright eyes, observing all the life in this part of the country: the little hay dancing in the wind; the flowers abounding on a pile of manure; the white and black birds along the flats calling out at low tide; the fireflies whispering at dusk.

Freely inspired by Gabrielle Roy's book of the same name, Cet été qui chantait is a show full of images, music and sweetness. Marie-Ève Fontaine and her team recreate the deeply poetic universe of the Franco-Manitoban author in a theater of images, inviting you to take a sensory journey designed for all audiences, especially the young and the elderly.
