La Bulle

This summer, CORPUS, Théâtre français de Toronto (TfT) & Jamii are teaming up to present La Bulle, a silent, hilarious and visually stunning solo performance from the minds of David Danzon and Carolin Lindner. Presented from August 31 to September 5, 2021, at the Berkeley Castle Courtyard, this silent outdoor event marks the first scheduled theatrical presentation for TfT since the beginning of the health crisis in 2020. Placing safety center stage, it heralds a new beginning for the companies, and a new priority, ensuring high quality and thought-provoking entertainment while abiding to public health measures.

SHOW DESCRIPTION: La Bulle features a one-of-a-kind bubble tent (a character in its own right) and its sole inhabitant: Pierrot, the iconic dreamer. Confined together, they live in transparent symbiosis. In this theatrical setting, there is nowhere to hide -- an absurd situation, fully exploited with humour by a lucid and lunar Pierrot. Through mime, dance, text, even drawing, and without uttering a single word, he connects with his audience. Dressed in his classic black and white costume and make-up, he manages to create bonds with those willing to spare him a little time. Embracing solitude whole-heartedly, the romantic loner swims freely like a fish in water in the realm of dreams. Poetry and humour are always at his side, true to CORPUS’ vocation.

THIS EVENT IS FREE. RESERVATION REQUIRED.
