Young audiences tour 2010-2011
for the elementary schools of B.-C.
La Chaise perdue
a L’UniThéâtre’s production (Edmonton)
by Louis-Dominique Lavigne et Luc LeBlanc
Dear teachers, principals and staff of the schools of British Columbia,
It is my pleasure to write to you to announce the 2010-2011 programme for young audiences (Kindergarden to grade 6).
A significant number of schools booked last season’s show for elementary schools, Comment devenir parfait en trois jours, and all the feedback we received during and after our provincial tour was highly positive and enthusiastic. Thanks to all of you, we performed in about 70 elementary schools in BC and Alberta and in front of more than 15 000 students and adults! We would like to thank you for allowing a place both for arts and culture within your school!
From April 4th to May 6th 2011, we would like to offer you the opportunity to live a great theatrical experience within the walls of your school. The play La Chaise perdue, which will be touring throughout B.-C., tells the story of twelve-year-old Mathieu whose grandfather just passed away. Hoping to forget about him, upset and angry, Mathieu tries to get rid of the chair his granddad gave him. Before he even does so, the chair transports him into a world of fantasy where he meets all kinds of strange and extraordinary characters who force him to fight a dragon but also to confront his own feelings and memories and help him cope with them.
Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions and/or if you want to book the play!
Reserve before Oct. 15th and save money: the cost is $785 +HST before Oct. 15th instead of $810 +HST after Oct. 15th
