About
La bulle, designed for any public outdoor space and fun for all ages, is the latest inventive theatre performance from CORPUS and a two-time Dora Mavor Awards nominee. The “stage,” a one-of-a-kind bubble tent, offers audiences a glimpse into the world of its quirky inhabitant, Pierrot, living, dancing, miming and drawing as he tries to connect with the people around him – asking the question: what is it like to live in a private space that is transparent to the public?
Programmed in the evening in Canada Square, the second half of the show will unfold in the darkness of the night and, with a bit of luck, in the moonlight under the stars.
Please note, this performance is general admission. A limited amount of chairs are available as well as seating on the ground and audiences are encouraged to bring their own blanket. Seating will be on a first come, first served basis.
