About the event

Wallonia Brussels International, one of the Centre de recherches francophones belges's main partners, is pleased to bring a multimedia experience to this year's Edinburgh International Festival.

'Dimanche' is a stunning visual performance combining puppetry, video, mime and clowning. The creators of this event are Focus Company and Chaliwaté Company, two award-winning Belgian mime and puppetry companies.

Between dreamlike fiction and stark reality, 'Dimanche' paints a witty and tender portrait of humanity surprised by the uncontrollable forces of nature.

How to attend

This event is part of the Edinburgh International Festival. It is costed, and tickets are available through the EIF website.

A touch tour for this production is available before the 7pm performance on 18 August.
