Description

“You are no longer where you were, but you are everywhere I am.” – Victor Hugo

Le temps s’envole – Paperplane is a theatrical, musical, and circus journey—a modern fable about the circle of life. Blending theatre, circus, dance, music, and lighting, the team forms a family of eight multidisciplinary artists who share the story of a life’s journey. Exploring themes of loss and grief, Paperplane reflects on the passage of time, on loved ones, and on childhood memories… bringing precious recollections to life, filled with light and whimsy.

ABOUT THE THEATRE ADVIENNE QUE POURRA

“An acrobatic theatrical fable of infinite gentleness.”
La Presse

“A tender, playful and poetic bubble.”
Le Devoir

“The eight performers present a wide range of acts—featuring aerial hoop, juggling, hand-to-hand, Cyr wheel and aerial straps—in the purest circus tradition, where strength, agility and flexibility take centre stage.”
