February is a month of vacations for schoolchildren, but also the month when gourmets celebrate Chandeleur and lovers, Valentine's Day.
It's also the shortest month of the year, when shows are in full swing. In fact, while revivals (for successful shows ) or launches (for new creations) sometimes take place throughout January, generally in February, all theaters have (well) started their second half of the season.
Whether it's to celebrate Valentine's Day (as lovers or with friends for singles) or to enjoy a gift received for Christmas, it's nice in this wintry weather to curl up in a seat in a theater and enjoy what's happening on stage.
Theater, dance, comedy, circus, magic, musicals, immersive shows, concerts and even figure skating- once again, there's a wide choice of shows on offer this February.
