Le Porteur / The Star Keeper, Théâtre de l’Œil’s emblematic show, will be presented for the 700^th time on Saturday, May 9, 2015. A tour of 26 performances making the show browse through the Maritimes and Ontario has also led to the PlayhouseSquare International Children's Festival in Cleveland (OH) in the United States where the company's 2014-2015 season will end. Check our calendar to know our dear Pretzel’s route next season …

We wish at the same time to underline Graham Soul‘s faithfulness. He played each of these 700 performances with the same commitment. At Théâtre de l’Œil since 1995 (20 years already!), he worked on 5 of its shows and also contributed to the excellence of the company‘s reputation as a craftsman, a mediator and an ambassador, in Quebec or on tour... As the cracker of which he bears the name, Graham remains a timeless classic that is always nice to find at our table… of manipulation!

We also congratulate the whole team to meet each time the many technical challenges imposed by this show.
