Félix, je me souviens

This show is not just a simple tribute to Félix Leclerc, a founding figure of Quebec culture who influenced today's greatest artists. It is an original and multidisciplinary celebration, combining music, circus, theater, illusion, and video, where 19 artists gathered on stage will show you his life and work from different angles.Félix's soul will be omnipresent, like a will-o'-the-wisp from the past dialoguing with the present.

The stage will quickly transform before your eyes, from the boreal forest to the streets of Paris, from childhood reveries to political awareness.A long journey in the footsteps of our “angry lark,” discovering his little-known influences and the spark he ignited in those around him.

Even today, many artists and thinkers are still influenced by him.You will be amazed by the versatility and modernity of this radio personality, poet, screenwriter, fabulist, actor, essayist, worker, pioneer, and activist, who is too often reduced to his dazzling singing career.

As you journey through his thousand lives, you will see Quebec evolve, as its nascent music scene and burgeoning social thought opened up to modernity, at the same time that Félix was learning his lessons in freedom. We still carry them with us today.
