The Pulse

Gravity & Other Myths / Orfeó Català Girls Choir

When facing change you have two options - to tame the beast or to ride the beast.

For acrobatics and physical theatre company, Gravity & Other Myths, 2020 was a beast like no other and taming it was never a viable option.

RUNNERS

Cirk La Putyka

Award winning contemporary circus company Cirk La Putyka introduces a spellbinding show filled to the brim with enchanting dance, impressive acrobatics and original live music that sets out to examine the experience of time in a world that demands everything be done in haste.

Hémisphère

Projet Sanctuaire

Composed of six circus artists from the Projet Sanctuaire and an orchestra of eight musicians, Hémisphère is a reflection on stellar and terrestrial cycles and our relationship to time.

Brave Space

Aloft

Brave Space is a blanket fort, a hoopskirt, an impulsive congregation in the tiniest of tents. Inspired by the idea of creating community in trying times, it begins as a puddle of fabric and grows to encompass a world of wondrous circus.

BARBU

Foire électrotrad par Cirque Alfonse

BARBU, electro trad fair, plunges into the origins of the circus in Montreal, from the end of the 19th to the 20th century. A fairground, a space for performance and exhibitionism, where the spectator is plunged into a universe of curiosity and eccentricity.

Dirty Laundry

invitée spéciale Barbada, Briefs Factory International

After 10 years of selling out festivals worldwide, the Briefs boys are back with their hills hoist poised ready to air their Dirty Laundry in this brand-new party cabaret you don’t want to miss out on

Julieta

Gabriela Muñoz

Julieta tells the story of a woman – full of experiences and quirkiness – and the multiple layers that old age brings. Transcending the literal to accommodate the humor and nuances of the human experience, it is a visual non-verbal one-woman show of physical theater that deals with the split between youth and old age.

Glob

Les Foutoukours

Two strange characters appear on stage.
They are bushy, soft and ageless.
Will they manage to find out where they are... and where they are going?

L'après-midi tombe quand tes biscuits se ruinent

La Croustade

L'après-midi tombe quand tes biscuits se ruinent is a 60-minute performance by two interpreters about the opposition and relationship between the child's soul and the adult's soul. It aims to create links and contrasts between these two subjects that are linked by an inevitable temporality and a disconcerting polarity.

Un Domingo

Galpon de Guevara et Proyecto Migra

A baroque, wild, fun show where extreme acrobatics and primordial feelings generate explosive energy. An immersion in the life of a shameless family where everything overflows, love and hate.

Sarabande

Jörg Müller & Noémi Boutin

Triptych punctuated by the famous Suites of J.S Bach, n°1, 3, and 5, of which the cellist expresses all the delicacy and infinite elegance. Her music is intertwined with three lively tableaux performed by the circus artist, balancer and dancer, Jörg Müller.

L'Autre Cirque

Artistes variés

La Chapelle Scènes Contemporaines, MONTRÉAL COMPLÈTEMENT CIRQUE and TOHU unite for the benefit of L'Autre Cirque, which celebrates the hybridization of genres, a mixture that sometimes surprises, but always refreshes.
