Tabarnak
Inspired by the village church that was once the gathering place of the small Quebec community where company members grew up, Cirque Alfonse have created their newest production, TABARNAK. A Quebecois expletive, which once formed a religious rebellious cry now acts as an invitation to audiences to come together in a contemporary circus congregation, to celebrate heaven, hell and everything in-between and have a rollicking good time! Edinburgh Fringe Festival. This event takes place at The Lafayette, The Underbelly Circus Hub
