Pub Royal, plays at the Grand Rex from April 12 to 14 for five performances. The musical is inspired by and performs songs by the Quebec group Les Cowboys fringants. So it won't be them you'll see on stage, but the collective Les 7 doigts de la main, featuring 7 actors/singers, 7 dancers and 6 circus artists.
The musical is directed by Sébastien Soldevila, one of the co-founders and co-artistic director of Les 7 doigts de la main. It features a mix of singing, acting, dancing and acrobatics. Les 7 doigts de la main explains their mission as "telling human stories with superhuman virtuosity". Created in 2002 by 7 founders, their aim was to redefine contemporary circus by playing with different artistic disciplines. Today, their productions range from one-man shows to musicals and even Olympic ceremonies. Today, they are based in Montreal and tour the world.
Les Cowboys fringants is a Canadian rock/folk/country band. A group committed to the environment and Quebec independence, they have sold no less than 1,300,000 albums worldwide. Founded in 1997, Les Cowboys fringants now consists of 3 members: Marie-Annick Lépine, Jérome Dupras and Jean-Francois Pauzé. The group is also known for its humor and self-mockery, and won the Juno award forFrancophone Album of the Year in March 2024.
Pub Royal, dedicated to Karl Tremblay, a member of the Cowboys fringants who died in 2023, promises to be a colorful musical full of surprises.
