Mise au jeu
« la ville vue par celui qui erre »
Accompanied by a guide, the Mise en jeu team invites you to plunge — at least for a 40-minute stroll — into the world of itinerants, those individuals who live in the street, whether by choice or ill fortune. Take in the street corners and the laneways and discover what lives inside these people: their daily realities, their concerns and their hopes. Come create a bond with these singular citizens, who are more often than not relegated to the role of urban props, to the point of invisibility.
We look forward to seeing you see things through the eyes of the itinerant...
Following the tour, ATSA invites you to have a coffee and take in the goings-on of the État d’Urgence!

The Mise au jeu interactive theatre troupe is comprised of versatile, creative actors who use theatrical expression and games as a means of communication, teaching and exchange. They have been doing so for over 15 years in Quebec, and occasionally abroad. Mise au jeu is a community group working for the transformation and improvement of the social fabric. Its members are committed to the daily struggle against poverty and discrimination. Through commissioned interactive theatrical works, Mise au jeu focuses attention on societal issues for the likes of aid, human rights and other organizations to help them explore options for concrete solutions.
