Machine de Cirque

The Company was founded in 2013 through the efforts of Vincent Dubé, president and general manager. It came to life at research and creativity sessions in 2012 and 2013 involving jugglers and acrobats Raphaël Dubé and Yohann Trépanier, as well as percussionist Fred Lebrasseur under the artistic direction of Vincent Dubé.

The creative process evolved into a public performance on February 15, 2013, that went beyond all expectations. A new Company with its own artistic imprint and identity was born! In the summer of 2013, the acrobatic duo of Maxim Laurin and Ugo Dario joined the team. The premiere of the Company’s first production is scheduled for May 21, 2015, at the Théâtre de la Bordée in Quebec City.
