As part of the Petits bonheurs Festival, families from Brussel and the surrounding area will be able to enjoy a free cultural exhibition that will entertain children of all ages from May 6 to June 13. Théâtre Sans Fil’s GÉANTES exhibition will be presented at the Brossard aquatic complex to mark the 50th anniversary of this world-renowned Quebec troupe.
“We want this playful exhibition to bring joy to the lives of our citizens. It’s a great honor to welcome Théâtre Sans Fil to our city,” declared Doreen Assaad, Mayor of Brossard.
An indoor and outdoor exhibition
The heart of the activity will take place inside the aquatic complex, where five (5) zones have been set up to reproduce show scenes, featuring some twenty giant puppets well known to the general public, such as The Hobbit, The Lord of the Rings, Hansel and Gretel. Visitors will marvel at the spectacular reconstructions. A circuit has also been set up outside the aquatic complex, featuring 10 large double-sided panels. The photos in the exhibition tell the story of Théâtre Sans Fil’s journey through a magical, touching world.
Online booking and compliance with safety regulations
The indoor exhibition requires a free online reservation. Time slots have been set to restrict the number of visitors and maintain the Public Health Department’s safety guidelines. In addition, a separate entrance and exit from the bathers’ area has been provided for visitors to the exhibition. Masks must also be worn.
