SHOW
Secure and happy in their little world, every day is perfect and full of adventures for Alix, Sasha, Lou and Noa. Then, on a day like any other they received terrible news: pink is just for girls. Thrown together into a whirlwind of emotions, they set off to find their bearings in this new landscape—for best and for worst.
PROJECT
In Le problème avec le rose, a production laced with comedy and absurdity that combines dance and theatre, the creators address the emergence of gender awareness in young children and how it affects their perception of the world. Veering between the tragic and the comic, like a mirror of society, the show examines diversity, blurred lines, assumptions, fears… Through the raw energy of its four performers, Le problème avec le rose offers a highly original approach to a topic of keen interest to today’s society.
Le Petit Théâtre de Sherbrooke
Le Petit Théâtre de Sherbrooke creates and presents new works intended specifically for children and young people. The high quality of its productions allows its audiences great freedom of interpretation, giving each child or adolescent the freedom to arrive at a personal understanding through their own individual sensitivity and intelligence.
La [parenthèse] / Christophe Garcia
Every new work created by choreographer Christophe Garcia presents a unique world, in which dance and music are constantly challenging their starting points. Intimate small-format shows and more ambitious productions all share the poetry, search for accuracy and dynamic energy of artists who have been making their distinctive mark on all the company’s productions for close to 20 years.
