The Amiens puppet theatre has put together a summer for all - big and small alike!
With traditional farces, shows for children, and workshops and tours, Chés Cabotans has something for everyone! At the Chés Cabotans Theatre you’ll find all kinds of ways to amuse yourself and your family, with, first of all, the return of two traditional farces: ‘Pierre et le Loup’ (Peter and the Wolf) and ‘l'Attaque d'apoplexie’ (The Fit of Apoplexy). Lafleur will also hold fun workshops for young audiences.

The exhibition : From the golden age of puppetry at the beginning of the 19th century to the beginnings of the Chés Cabotans theatre in 1997 in the iconic Saint Leu neighbourhood—delve into the history of the troupe created by Maurice Domon in 1933—and of our local hero Lafleur.
This tour is supplemented by a presentation of part of the puppet backdrop and puppetry accessories.
Free visit on performance days: Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays from 2pm to 5pm.

The Chroma light show uses colour as the guiding line for an immersive experience in the heart of a contemporary scenario. From the blue that evokes the dye merchants who contributed to the funding of the monument to a new polychromatic restitution, the highlight of this journey through time, the interplay of illumination and mystery on the cathedral continue to fascinate.
