Description
Created by Vicky Côté, the Théâtre à Bout Portant distinguishes itself with a focus on creation using different disciplines, uniting physical theatre, manipulation of objects and choreography. It prefers the experimentation of movement, the physicality in role playing, in the pursuit of a unique artistic approach which is, at the same time, both critical and aesthetic. Its clever and dynamic aesthetic universes are the base on which the sensitive proposals are developed, with a sharp view questioning our behaviors.
The company is present internationally and, since its beginning, received many awards such as the John-Hirsch award of the Canada Council for the arts for the excellence of the direction by its founder.
