Here and There!

Directed by Philippe Habeck.
Produced by Théâtre Cercle Molière.
January 14 and 21, 2025
Grades 7 to 12

At 18, on a tangled path leading only to regret, Isabelle hopes to discover herself. With the help of a cab driver, will she succeed in finding the right path? Not easy when those people who love us so much don't always understand where we are.

A new TCM creation for the 2024-2025 season, Un peu partout, is a collective creation by a youth who wants to be heard. They're tired of having a narrative imposed on them that doesn't represent them. Youth is more complex than we think. Theater must guide us through this reality: regrets, love, uncertainty, everything! And anyway, can a single decision as a young adult really change the course of a life?

Maputo-Mozambique

Directed by Thomas Guérineau.
Produced by Compagnie TG.
February 3 to 7, 2025
Grades 1 to 12

Let's get wild! In this rousing show of juggling, rhythmic singing and percussive dance, four radiant Mozambican performers give us an eyeful and an earful. We'll be reaping nuggets of joy and pleasure for the whole year to come!
‍
Sounds, balls and plastic bags twirl, fall and collide everywhere! The performers' extra-agile bodies and smooth voices literally become instruments. On the stripped-down stage, adorned only with a cloak of light and intriguing drums, a whole festival of sensations, acrobatics and sonic delights emerges, as if the echoes of a busy street in the city of Maputo were reaching us.
‍
It's so contagious that we have no choice but to collectively vibrate in tune with these virtuoso artists as they mystify us with their skills. And in the end, we're reconnected with what is perhaps the true role of the performing arts: a fabulous excuse to be together.

Frisky and Agile

Directed by Jocelyn Sioui.
Produced by Jocelyn Sioui and Productions Illusion Fabuleuse.
April 14 to 17, 2025
Grades 7 to 12

With Frisky and Agile, Jocelyn Sioui brings Auhaïtsic, an unlikely Wendat hero, back to life. How does this illustrious stranger, who inspires distrust among his own people, manage to save his nation from extinction and change the course of history? A seasoned puppeteer and fabulous storyteller, Jocelyn Sioui has fun bringing colorful, larger-than-life characters out of the shadows. Author of Mononk Jules, which he adapted for the stage, Sioui knows that sleeping dogs lie in wait.

Frisky and Agile is based on the tale of the same name, written by Jocelyn Sioui and published by Éditions Hannenorak.

" Hold on tight. From here on in, it's a story that follows the force of the current." - Jocelyn Sioui (from the book of the same name)

A co-production of Afrik'kadi and Théâtre Cercle Molière.
November 25 to 29 / December 2 to 6, 2024
Grades 5 to 9

We're in rural, and it's winter. There's snow and visibility is poor. On the way to the divisional competition, the bus has to stop... Three young people find themselves trapped on the bus:
‍
- Amina, a newcomer from Francophone african country who refuses to assimilate,
- Louis, the mixed-race boy looking for himself,
- Jen, the young assimilated girl from a refugee family.

Accompanied by driver Ousmane, a permanent resident, we have to wait for the storm to lift, but it may take a while. Will they be able to face the cold and boredom? Can they find the keys to "living together"?

Black and Proud

A co-creation by Wilgis Agossa and Théâtre Cercle Molière.
February 1 to 28, 2025

Theme : Words on ills

Organize a visit to the Théâtre Cercle Molière during the Noir et Fier exhibition.

For its 4th edition, Black and Proud, wishes to make words resonate to heal the ills that plague our societies. As we know, black communities have been victims of many ills for many generations. Keeping them quiet doesn't help us to make the right connections for a better life together. That's why we believe it's necessary, through art, to vocalize the ills that haunt us in order to move forward as a society towards healing.
