Company Overview

Since 2015, La Fille Du Laitier has been surprising audiences with bold and accessible theatrical works. Born from an idea as wild as it is folkloric — turning a truck into a mobile performance venue — the company quickly won hearts with its concept of theatre delivery, right to your doorstep. By performing in outdoor spaces, it seeks to democratize theatre and make it accessible to as many people as possible, inviting the public to discover original and vibrant creations. Today, La Fille Du Laitier shines both in public spaces and traditional venues, in Quebec and on international stages.

Driven by an offbeat perspective, La Fille Du Laitier proudly embraces the right to madness and celebrates the freedom of imagination through a physical, choreographic theatre where objects and absurdity intertwine to create unique stories.

Their flagship creations, Caisse 606 and Macbeth Muet,have won over both critics and audiences. Performed more than 300 times, Caisse 606 immerses the audience in a whimsical grocery store where two cashiers, trapped in a tightly timed routine, dream of escape into a world where carrots dance and soy sauce dies of heartbreak.
Macbeth Muet, for its part, reinvents Shakespeare’s classic in a wordless, choreographic, and visceral adaptation where bodies, objects, and fake blood intertwine to deliver a bold and powerful theatrical experience.

With over 550 performances across Canada and abroad, La Fille Du Laitier continues its mission to make live theatre vibrant and accessible. By surprising audiences and demystifying the performing arts, the company invites everyone to rediscover theatre through a playful and original lens. Whether in the street or on stage, it aims to be a gateway to the performing arts — a spark that awakens curiosity and nurtures a love for theatre.

Our Mobile Stages

La Fille Du Laitier’s mobile stages — its theatre-delivery truck and trailer-stage — transform everyday places into true performance spaces. Within minutes, they unfold to make a theatre appear where you least expect it: in a public square, an alleyway, a park, or a parking lot. These nomadic setups break down barriers and make live art accessible to all, everywhere, by weaving theatre into the very heart of community life.

Indoor

La Fille Du Laitier performs just as comfortably in conventional theatres — reaching audiences of all ages — as in non-traditional venues, depending on the context and the project. While some productions are created specifically for the stage, others can be adapted to unconventional spaces without ever compromising artistic quality. Our top priority remains connecting with audiences, no matter the setting. Thanks to our extensive experience at festivals in Quebec and abroad, we’ve developed a strong ability to adapt — always with the same commitment: to offer theatre that is alive, sensitive, and accessible.
