Emerging Artists Showcase - Clémentine (or Almost Everything Else)

What is Le Tremplin?
It’s about showcasing the talent in our region.

Every year, the Compagnie de l’Écho spotlights young professionals—former students trained at the conservatory, as well as those who have honed their craft in our very own workshops. It’s an opportunity for these emerging companies to present their creative work.

What a source of pride to see these artists take center stage in our season—and what a wonderful recognition of the educational work we’ve been doing for the past 20 years.
This flagship event in our program is a true launching pad for the talents of tomorrow.

For the 7th edition of Le Tremplin, we’re hosting the soundism company’s production “Clémentine (or Almost Everything Else).” We hope to see many of you—whether as artists or audience members—come out to support this initiative and celebrate the vitality and sustainability of theater.

Clémentine is that kind of girl—a ray of sunshine in spite of herself, the one whom life never seems to stop.

Noah, on the other hand, is the opposite—a modern vampire, as Clémentine likes to call him.

They wander through a strange sort of gray-blue landscape, where every mountain, every valley seems both grand and small, immense yet tiny.

They discover their own wounds, their rough edges, and all the others—the others whose world is full of ups and downs.

They experience the passage of time, the transition to adulthood, the end of adolescence, and the end of everything else.

Part visual installation, part theatrical performance, this production builds on the research conducted by the soundism company into the hybrid nature of the performing arts.

Thus, the on-stage action emerges from an initial visual installation, questioning the permeability of media in artistic creation.
