Description
Atelier Bleu Majjjiiik theatre company, has been touring French and immersion schools in Canada since 1986. The company was made a spokesperson of the Associates Schools Project Network (ASPNET) of UNESCO in view of the values passed on to young audiences and its commitment to the greater welfare of children. The company tours with five productions for children ages 5 to 14 and their parents. The themes deal with childrens experiences, concerns and wishes. Accordingly, theatre becomes an awareness-raising tool for social education skills and citizen responsibility. The company explores several mediums: acting, mask and puppetry. To push its step, it conceives and realizes educational documents for the pupils, the teachers and the parents. It also created the Rivière Bleue collection published by the Chenelière Éducation publishing house.
