LE PÊCHEUR ET LA MOUETTE

Presented as part of the Outremont borough’s cultural activities program.

 

Gear up for a wild ride with an unlikely duo!

Le Pêcheur et la Mouette, an original creation by Marie-Hélène Grisé and Thomas-Charles Jacquet, is a three-part adventure about a grumpy fisherman and a mischievous seagull who are always playing tricks on each other. Amidst chaos, hijinks and surprising encounters, their odyssey from the wharf to the beach is full of surprises and belly laughs.

Drawing inspiration from the world of cartoons, this two-person comedy act delights young and old alike with funny and wacky adventures at every turn.

 

In case of rain, the performance will take place in the Saint-Viateur pavilion.
