There’s a star for each one of you! – Café-theatre in hommage to Angèle Arsenault – From August 8th to 12th
Although she was often known as the “little blonde with big glasses,” Angèle Arsenault was a giant of Francophone songs. Born in Abram-Village, Prince Edward Island, this singer-songwriter has enjoyed widespread success, especially in Acadia and Quebec, throughout North America and Europe. Even since her passing on February 25, 2014, her music continues to shine, now on a whole new generation of artists and fans. Jeannette Arsenault, daughter of Armand and Priscille Arsenault, will play the role of her aunt Angèle in this café-theatre this summer. Don’t miss it! (This show is a café-theatre so we will not be serving a full meal.)
La Cuisine à Mémé – From July 14th
Based on the successes of the last two summers, we propose once again in 2023 a return to the very first years of the dinner-shows that took place at the former Village pionnier acadien during the years 1985-86. At that time, the character of Mémé was a puppet, a kind of mistress of ceremonies; she and the rest of the company presented comedy scenes based on various characters and situations with a bit of improvisation and all sorts of little surprises with different special guests at each show. (Dinner-theatre with four-course meal.)
Gélas’s Wake – From July 11th
After the beautiful wedding of his daughter in 2019, the summer of 2023 brings the sad news of the tragic and unexpected death of Gélas. Even if his wife Tarzille, his daughter Jeannette and his sister twin Gélinas, descended from Charlottetown and are all in mourning, we are sure that there will be plenty of beautiful music and lots of food. So you are all expected for the “wake” (that is to say the mortuary visit) of Gélas, because with Gélas and his neighbor Alphonse, even during a wake, there will be plenty of reasons to laugh, guaranteed! (This show is a café-theatre so we will not be serving a full meal.)
