Serge Fiori: Gatineau performances cancelled
The production had been scheduled at the Théâtre du Casino du Lac-Leamy from October 27 to October 31, 2026, including afternoon and evening performances on Saturday, October 31.
The venue’s schedule now marks the Serge Fiori show as cancelled, while ticket listings for the October 30 and October 31 performances also show that they will not proceed.
The cancellation also affects the production’s announced dates in Sherbrooke in December 2026 and in Saguenay, Sherbrooke and Quebec City in February, March and April 2027.
The Cirque Éloize notice refers broadly to the cancellation of the show, while the published event calendar lists those later dates as part of the same run.
What ticket holders should know
Cirque Éloize said people seeking refunds should contact the box office where they bought their tickets.
The company directed questions about the cancellation to Productions Bylo Nebylo Inc.
The official notice did not provide a reason for the cancellation.
In its October 29 update, Cirque Éloize said it was continuing to press the producer and France Film for clear answers and to ensure that contractual agreements were respected.
A major production built around Fiori’s music
Serge Fiori – Seul Ensemble combined circus, dance, music and poetry around songs associated with Fiori’s work with Harmonium and his solo career.
The revised production was directed by Benoit Landry, with musical direction and arrangements involving Louis-Jean Cormier, Alex McMahon and Guillaume Chartrain.
It included songs such as “Vert,” “Depuis l’Automne,” “Si Bien,” “Viens Danser” and “Un Musicien Parmi Tant d’Autres.”
Cirque Éloize described the 2026 version as a substantially reworked production rather than a simple revival.
The show introduced new circus disciplines, visual scenes and stage design, and incorporated material connected to Kwe!, a project involving Quebec’s 11 Indigenous communities.
The show’s interrupted history
The first version of Seul Ensemble was created in 2019 and attracted more than 70,000 spectators before the pandemic interrupted its run, according to Cirque Éloize.
The 2026 return was planned as a tribute to Fiori, who died on June 24, 2025, at the age of 73.
The new production opened in Montreal before moving to Quebec City and was then scheduled to continue through other Quebec centres.
Cirque Éloize thanked the audience, performers, technicians, designers and other contributors, saying the company had invested deeply in the production and would have wanted to continue presenting it.
For now, ticket holders should rely on the box office where their purchase was made for refund instructions and timing.
