28 August 2025
Quelques jours avant la rentrée culturelle, il semble juste de vous présenter davantage celle qui,...
The cultural season kicks off at Le Diamant with 7 shows to discover this fall. Theatre, circus, wrestling, and multidisciplinary arts will take you on a journey of raw emotions and surprising worlds that will make your autumn vibrate.
For the first time in Quebec City, Jean-Christophe Meurisse’s troupe, Les Chiens de Navarre, transforms Le Diamant’s stage into a wild playground of hilarious madness. In La vie est une fête, seven performers deliver a satire celebrating all the neuroses of our time, moving from a political assembly to a psychiatric hospital.
Dive into this wacky and unpredictable theatre, where the ordinary turns into bursts of humour, excess, and raw emotion.
L’orchestre d’hommes-orchestres is back at Le Diamant! After the resounding success of Joue à Tom Waits, the collective presents the world premiere of La mémoire de ma mère, a new musical theatre project.
In a fragmented room, memories come alive, offering a glimpse into an intimate world that is both nostalgic and festive.
North Shore Pro Wrestling once again shakes up Le Diamant with its Professional Wrestling Gala. Expect an electrifying evening where wrestlers deliver thrilling, acrobatic, adrenaline-filled matches. The crowd’s roar transforms Salle Hydro-Québec into a true arena, where the tension is palpable.

Between transmission and renewal, Sono io? celebrates the legacy of Circus Ronaldo, spanning seven generations of circus artists. On stage, Danny and Pepijn, father and son, explore their intimate and artistic bond through music and performance.
Together, they offer a moving tribute across past and present: a father haunted by a lost ecstasy, and a son seeking reconciliation between tradition and modernity.
The company Joe Jack et John, known for its bold, socially engaged theatre that includes neurodivergent artists and artists with intellectual disabilities, presents Cispersonnages en quête d’auteurice. A comedy where confusion and ethical dilemmas become material for laughter—biting or unapologetic.
On stage, a troupe of performers attempts to advance a new play, proposing various scenarios, but their playground is booby-trapped and artistic freedom is limited.
The Montréal-based collective People Watching, composed of six artists, presents Play Dead, exploring the absurdity of daily life through familiar objects. Combining acrobatics, movement, and physical theatre, the show celebrates the beauty of the banal, like a wild dance to the last song before the party ends.
According to La Presse, it is “one of the most original and inspiring contemporary circus performances of recent years.”
Irreverent and festive, Cirque Alfonse returns to Le Diamant and reinvents the wedding as a completely wild party! With 1970s colours and Caribbean and traditional Québec musical accents, the show invites the audience to become active participants in the celebration.
Put on your finest clothes and join the whole family to experience La Noce d’Alfonse, where love is celebrated in all its forms.
Committed to cultural accessibility, Le Diamant offers performances at accessible prices.
Various programs are also in place to allow people with low income or those less familiar with the performing arts to experience the joys of live performance.
