About this Event

Une corneille, portée par la brise, survole les montagnes, la vallée et enfin le fleuve. Elle vous guide jusqu’à la petite maison aux volets verts, tout au bout de la route de Petite-Rivière. Là, vous trouvez Gabrielle observant de ses yeux brillants toute la vie dans ce coin de pays : le petit foin qui danse dans le vent ; les fleurs qui foisonnent sur un tas de fumier ; les oiseaux blancs et noirs longeant les battures qui crient à la marée basse ; les lucioles chuchotant à la tombée de la nuit. Librement inspiré du livre éponyme de Gabrielle Roy, Cet été qui chantait est un spectacle tout en images, en musique et en douceur. Marie-Ève Fontaine et son équipe recréent l’univers profondément poétique de l’autrice franco-manitobaine dans un théâtre d’images et vous invitent à faire un voyage sensoriel destiné à tous les publics, tout spécialement les petits et les aînés.


A gust of wind carries a crow across the landscape : mountains, valleys and a majestic river. Follow the crow to a little white and green house nestled in the small town of Petite-Rivière. Here you’ll find Gabrielle Roy, observing with wonder all the life in her corner of the world. Let her tell you about the grasses that dance in the wind; describe the black and white birds that cry at low tide; and whisper to you about the fireflies that twinkle at dusk. Freely inspired by the eponymous text, Cet été qui chantait is as gentle as Gabrielle Roy’s own words. Featuring a soundscape and colourful characters, the deeply poetic universe of the Franco Manitoban author comes to life through puppetry, shadow play and toy theatre. Marie-Ève Fontaine and her accomplices invite you on this sensory journey, designed for all audiences, especially children and seniors.
