A coproduction with the "Orchestre Symphonique de Québec" and the "Societé du 400me de la Ville de Québec"
The Birds Clan
Based on the theme of encounter, the same theme as Quebec City’s 400th anniversary celebrations, The Bird Clan evokes the first meeting between the First Nations and the European explorers, four centuries ago.
For this project, Arsenal à musique and the "Orchestre Symphonique de Québec" have chosen to work with Harold Rhéaume-Fils d’Adrien danse, who has created a choreography for this story based on an original text by Christine Sioui Wawanoloath and with music by Denis Dion.
A multimedia concept by Jacques Collin (who works with Robert Lepage) lends a touch of modernity and a distinct poetic air to the production.
A decisive encounter
This Wabanaki legend tells the story about how the people of the land of the rising sun first met the strangers who came from the sea on a big boat.
