Trois-Rivières, March 13, 2018 -Cirque du Soleil will set up for a fourth summer in Trois-Rivières to present its Tribute Series new show: Juste une p’tite nuite. This new show, created and produced by 45 DEGREES, Cirque du Soleil's events and special projects company, will pay tribute to the Colocs.
"Through Juste une p'tite nuite, we have chosen to salute the timeless work of the Colocs. An emblematic figure of the 90s Quebec music scene, this band has created a singular artistic universe, mixing influences and collaborations. Their songs continue to resonate in each of us. It is this popular anchorage and openness to the world that we wanted to celebrate. The time of a little night. " says Daniel Fortin, executive director, creation for 45 DEGREES.
After, Le Monde est Fou, Tout écartillé and Stone, Juste une p’tite nuite is the fourth show of Cirque du Soleil's Tribute Series. This new chapter is part of a reaffirmed desire to push back artistic boundaries and offer a different vision of the band's work through the creative lens of Cirque du Soleil. This 75-minute show, created exclusively for the Cogeco Amphitheatre, directed by Jean-Guy Legault and under the musical direction of Jean-Phi Goncalves, will bring together 27 artists.
The artistic and musical direction of the show will focus on highlighting the festive, collective and inclusive aspect of the Colocs. This year, it is from the group's original soundtracks and the voice of Dédé Fortin that the show's musical theme will be created on to interweave with a live musical performance for the very first time.
"The show Juste un p'tite nuite marks the 4th collaboration with the Corporation des Évènements de Trois-Rivières around the Tribute Series. And it is a renewed pleasure to work with the teams on these original productions, in this setting that represents the Cogeco Amphitheatre. Over the years, we have built relationships of trust that feed our creativity and reinforce our desire to surprise the public. » testifies Yasmine Khalil, Executive Producer and President of 45 DEGREES.
