Since the end of last June, the Dunort family show has amazed young and old in the brand new Ellipse performance hall. An incomparable experience awaits spectators in this unique immersive space in Canada, with this 75-minute multimedia theater show. The public will follow young Dunort in his quest to reach a star: an adventure that is both funny, touching and rich in meaning about perseverance and the importance of believing in yourself and in your dreams.
About the Ellipse Powered by the Beauceron theater company Pixel d’étoile, the Ellipse is an exceptional cultural infrastructure in the shape of a ring made up of 300 LED screens measuring 3.5 meters high by 17 meters in diameter. Surrounded by immersive surround sound, 155 spectators will enjoy different theatrical and multimedia experiences. “The Ellipse project was born from a somewhat crazy dream: to create a place where we can marvel together. With the immersive theater piece Dunort 360°, we invite young and old to light their stars by letting themselves be carried away by a story that envelops them from all sides. We can’t wait to share this sweet magic that is funny, touching and inspiring. »- Alain Lessard, co-general and artistic director of Pixel d’étoile
