With Blizzard, FLIP Fabrique takes you on a crazy, poetic and gentle journey in the dead of winter, and invites you to lose yourself in a moment of complete wonder. With performers at the peak of their art and outstanding visual poetry, Blizzard promises to blow away everything in its path. What if winter has taken over? Not just outside, in the streets and in the fields, But also in the houses, in the bedrooms Underneath our clothes, and even right into our hearts. Everything, absolutely everything, buried under the snow, Obliterated by a white-out. The north wind freezes time as it flows over us. Would it be a catastrophe? Or a chance to start over, To fix our mistakes? A new blank page In the shape of a blizzard. An ode to Quebec winters Blizzard pays homage to Québec winters in an acrobatic, poetic and humorous way. The idea for a show about winter came to director Olivier Normand during a tour abroad. It was then that he realized that he missed winter and that despite the harshness of this season in Québec, it is very important in his life. Winter in all its forms Blizzard approaches winter in several vignettes, each with a different aspect. The beauty of winter, a snowball fight, the snowflakes flying in the wind, the introspection allowed by winter’s calmness, the joy of children learning that their school is closed because of a snowstorm are all facets that are displayed in the show. Created during a freezing winter The show was created in Québec City in the middle of winter in 2019. As luck would have it, this winter was particularly harsh, with colds of -20 °C and snowstorms in profusion. The heating system even broke down during rehearsal! Hilarious The various numbers are interspersed with messages from the Canadian ministry of cold and brrrr. These humorous vignettes strike the perfect balance between laughter and poetry throughout the show. Will please the whole family Much like an animated film, the show is designed to appeal on many levels. Acrobatics and comedy that will please everyone are superimposed on more mature themes that will move adults. A futuristic piano Blizzard’s music is performed entirely live by musician composer Ben Nesrallah. He plays a futuristic piano custom-designed for the show. It has all kinds of drawers and hiding spots that houses a synthesizer, console rhythm machine and other sound effects. It can even generate smoke! Listen to Blizzard’s soundtrack on Apple Music Or on Spotify This performance is part of the Shuman Insurance Presentation Series and is show sponsored by Alpine Fitness. The Irish Descendants are the next show in this premiere series
