Les saumons de la Mitis
Carrefour International de Théâtre
In this outdoor show, Christine Beaulieu invites us to dive underwater with the salmon of the Mitis River. From the spawning of the eggs to the return of the salmon to their native river, including their short transport by truck to cross hydroelectric dams, the spectators accompany the performer on this unique and marvelous journey. We are 8000 eggs. We are brothers and sisters. We are all together around our storyteller, immersed in this touching family show. Free for 4 to 12 year olds Remember to bring something to sit on for the children, as seated places are reserved for paying ticket holders. ☔ In case of light rain, we will lend you ponchos. In case of heavy rain, the show must be cancelled. If a cancellation is necessary, you will be informed by email a maximum of 2 hours before the start of the show. If in doubt, contact the ticket office at billetterie@carrefourtheatre.qc.ca or by phone at 418-529-1996.
