synopsis
Serge Fiori — Seul ensemble, a new version of the circus show first presented on March 6, 2019, at Théâtre St-Denis, offers a daring and visual reinterpretation of Serge Fiori’s work.
It contains its highlights, enriched with new passages inspired by the last seven years, including Kwe!, a musical project that Serge was particularly proud of. The music remains the main thread of the show. Revisited by Louis-Jean Cormier, Alex McMahon and Guillaume Chartrain, Serge's timeless songs continue to unite generations and nourish the collective imagination.
Cirque Éloize, an accomplice in the original creation, is back under the direction of Benoit Landry (Chicago) who will revisit the staging. As for the sets, destroyed during the deluge of August 16, 2024, they will be completely redesigned to offer a renewed scenography.

BenoIt Landry
A versatile artist, Benoit Landry is a stage director working in theatre, circus, music, and television. Accustomed to large-scale productions, he has directed more than forty shows and events in recent years. Among the most notable are En direct de l’univers (ICI Télé), the National Holiday celebrations on the Plains of Abraham, the large outdoor shows Plaines de chansons and L’été de mes chansons presented as part of the SuperFrancoFête, the musical Lili St-Cyr on tour across Quebec, and Chansons pour filles et garçons perdus (Centre du Théâtre d’Aujourd’hui and Place des Arts, Montréal). Several of his standout circus creations have resulted from collaborations with Cirque Éloize, including Serge Fiori – Seul ensemble (2019), Projet Everland (Korea, 2026), the art film Sept moments de joie (2020), and Le Géant (Montréal Complètement Cirque, 2023). He leads the multidisciplinary creation company Nord Nord Est, which produced the acrobatic and musical show Après la nuit in 2022–2023, opening the Montréal Complètement Cirque festival and later presented at Le Diamant in Quebec City. Also an actor, musician, and singer, he has worked as a performer and creator on numerous productions in Montreal theatres, as well as on tour throughout Quebec and internationally.
Media reception
“Cirque Éloize and Fiori — both impressionists in their own way: each song becomes its
own little piece of theatre, its own universe, shaped by simple solo choreography or largescale
numbers, by moments of intimacy and bursts of power.”
– Philippe Renaud, Le Devoir (2019)
“Spectacular — that is truly the word that defines the evening! A meticulously crafted
scenography that deceives the eye and keeps the audience fully engaged from beginning
to end.”
– Emeline Descharles, La Bible urbaine (2019)
“Cirque Éloize and Fiori: a perfect match! Forty years later, for one unforgettable evening,
this timeless music and the breathtaking feats of Cirque Éloize came together to deliver a
powerful wave of nostalgia and wonder.”
– Normand Provencher, Le Soleil (2019)
“Serge Fiori – Seul Ensemble: an entertaining spectacle!”
– Anne-Josée Cameron, Radio-Canada Québec (2019)
