Fleuve
Fleuve
Machine de Cirque invaded the Baie de Beauport (Québec, Canada) in August 2020 to create an original walk-through circus inspired by the St. Lawrence River.
FLEUVE explores the many aspects of the majestic waterway: nutritive fishing; the anchor port; the beacon in the night; the epic ice canoe crossings; underwater shipwreck exploration; and – last but not least – the great queen of the St. Lawrence, as colossal as she is fragile: the whale!
