Driven by Théâtre Action, Feuilles vives serves as a launching ground for new Franco-Ontarian theatrical creations. The 7th edition of the event will take place from September 20 to 22, 2024, at the Frontenac Cultural Centre in Kingston. This year, Feuilles vives will offer a series of readings and workshops under the theme "Subterranean Tremors". The works in the program are permeated by this inner life, this silent stir, this underlying emotion, on the verge of bursting forth.
