Chez Francis
Welcome to the backyard party held by Francis, your neighbor/relative/friend of naïve nature. The afternoon programing appears to be pleasant, however it isn’t so much the bitter taste of the ham sandwiches that’s ruining the party, but rather the burning gaze of the upstairs neighbor… the landlord.

In-Situ Performance
Length: 25 minutes
Creators & Performers: Vanessa Kneale & Stéphane Landry
Boomachicaboom
As the best of friends and an unparalleled duo, Les Chic-Chics land on stage with one thing on their mind: light up the party inside your heart! And on top of it, they have a show to present! Are you ready? Well, they sure are, or at least, that’s what they think…
​
The performance has barely begun and things just aren’t going as usual: props are getting stuck in space and time, inanimate objects are coming to life and the laws of physics seem to be vanishing into thin air… Ouf, it’s not easy being a clown!
Luckily, these friendly characters won’t give up and will find plenty of solutions through thick or thin to deliver their beloved show! With a bit of magic, a touch of music and dance, and a side of mime,
Boomachicaboom is a clown adventure in which friendship, perseverance, and solidarity prevail.
