This puppet show is non-verbal.
This dark tale follows a doctor who will stop at nothing to revive his son. He is performing questionable experiments in an abandoned hospital where the only real "patient" is his wife. Unable to deal with the death of her son and, being a threat to herself and others, the doctor keeps her locked in a cell. A creature from the outside world enters the hospital and is discovered to be the missing piece to the doctor's experiments. However, its presence begins a chain of events that take the story in a direction even the omnipotent doctor could not foresee. The story is told without language; sound and action carry the narrative.

Ce spectacle de marionettes est non-verbal.
Ce sombre récit raconte l'histoire d'un médecin qui ne recule devant rien pour ranimer son fils. Il effectue des expériences douteuses dans un hôpital abandonné où la seule véritable patiente est sa femme. Incapable de faire face à la mort de son fils et, étant une menace pour elle-même et les autres, le médecin la tient enfermée dans une cellule. Une créature du monde extérieur arrive à l'hôpital et s'avère être la pièce manquante dans les expériences du docteur. Toutefois, la présence de cette créature déclenche une chaîne d'événements qui transforme l'histoire d'une manière que même le médecin tout-puissant ne pouvait pas prévoir. C'est une narration sans paroles où l'histoire est racontée à travers le son et l'action.

Coming Soon

What if you entered an empty rehearsal hall and suddenly an audience appears? Joseph Ste-Marie brings his experimental scripted/improvised one-man show, This Show is Broken back to the stage! This remount blends the 2021 Digital Theatre production from the Montreal FRINGE Festival and the original 2015 production at the 2nd annual Shortstanding Festival. Ste-Marie must perform his show as he explores his life, struggles, missteps, and tries to show that it’s not too late to pursue your dreams…. However, Joseph is challenged to be honest with himself so his show can be authentic as possible without being blinded by ambition.

The Montreal Clown Festival is pleased to return to its roots at the home of the St. Ambroise Montreal Fringe Festival to present a cabaret of new work, “New Recipes” featuring 12 brave clowns.

Under the direction of Gabe McKinney (Director, Old God; Speigleworld; Dell-Arte graduate and guest teacher), 12 performers developed short new works for the opening night of the 4-day Clown festival after a same-day, high-stakes workshop.
