Weekend shows

  • Santa Maria

A camelot selling objects and maps, like Christopher Columbus, claims to be a former sailor on the Santa Maria: here he is to tell the true story of the crossing! His shack becomes the stage for this expedition, with moving-picture and silhouette-theater tableaux performed with the help of spectators! From the feet of a Spanish cathedral, you're invited to join the deck of the Nao Santa Maria, for a sail into the Sargasso Sea, to discover new lands!

  • Tortuga

Tortuga was created around an emblematic pirate character: Jack Rackham aka "Calico Jack". It all begins in a pirate hideout, where Calico Jack takes refuge with his first mate and crew, preparing his quest for treasure. The audience is introduced to the characters: the tavern-keepers, the mysterious creatures initiated into magic, the kindly clownish sailor, the worrying pirates. Until the discovery of a map leading to the treasure.

  • Conquistadors

The story takes place in 16th-century South America, in the twilight of the Conquistadors. In the heart of Amazonia, one of the last expeditions led by Fernando de Guzman, goes deep into the jungle in search of the legendary "El Dorado". But deprivation and lack of success sow the seeds of mutiny.

  • Opera Nova

Here we are plunged into the heart of the Renaissance, in the golden age of dueling, where the dagger and rapier are constantly called upon to resolve conflicts. Maestros teach the art of fencing, and some vigorously defend their ideas...
