Cubi Poter Et Le Sortilège Du Poulailler - Acte 2 Théâtre, Lyon

Welcoming Cubi Poter et le sortilège du poulailler to Acte 2 Théâtre

At Acte 2 Théâtre, we are thrilled to open our doors to Cubi Poter et le sortilège du poulailler, a gleefully irreverent, family‑friendly adventure that transforms our intimate Lyon stage into a whirl of feathers, spells, and quick‑fire wordplay. From our perspective as a venue devoted to live imagination, this production is a perfect fit for the room’s close proximity and crisp acoustics: every aside, visual gag, and mischievous wink lands with the clarity and warmth that our audiences cherish. The show’s playful universe, a cheeky nod to the rites of magic school epics reimagined through the charm of a countryside henhouse, invites spectators of all ages to lean in, participate, and take delight in theatrical craft. We value pieces that reward attention with detail, and here the timing is precise, the stage business inventive, and the ensemble’s rapport with the crowd immediate—an alchemy that turns a clever parody into a buoyant evening of theatre made to be shared.

Artistic pulse of the season

Programming Cubi Poter et le sortilège du poulailler this season allows us to spotlight a company that has clearly sharpened its tools and expanded its storytelling. The creative team returns to Acte 2 Théâtre with a refreshed version that layers new gags atop swift physical comedy, refines the narrative arc, and introduces playful set pieces that seem to conjure laughter out of thin air. As a venue, we witness up close the meticulous care behind the chaos: low‑tech illusions that turn simple props into sorcerous machines, sound cues used as punchlines, and a musicality in the dialogue that keeps the tempo brisk without losing the heart. The current run showcases a troupe confident in its comic engine—light on its feet, nimble with audience interaction, and alive to the quirks of our stage. It’s a lively update that respects what made the piece an audience favorite while giving regular theatre‑goers a reason to return. Season after season, we look for projects that celebrate theatrical intelligence with accessibility; this one manages both, inviting laughter from first‑timers and rewarding families who follow the company’s growing universe.

What awaits you at Acte 2 Théâtre is a hand‑crafted burst of stage magic built for closeness: the kind of comedy where a whispered conspiracy between characters becomes our secret too, and where a barn door opens onto a realm of ridiculous heroism. Expect spirited duels fought with kitchen utensils, “enchanted” farm tools that develop opinions of their own, and a tug‑of‑war between noble destiny and barnyard reality that blossoms into generous audience play. We’re proud of how the production uses our space—from quick changes that happen in view to perfectly judged entrances through the aisles—to fold spectators into the joke. Families will appreciate the layered humor: slapstick that delights younger viewers, linguistic fireworks for older siblings, and winking cultural references that keep adults grinning. And because we prize comfort and clarity, every seat offers a clean sightline on the antics, with sound designed to favor the sparkle of live voices. In short, the theatre becomes a game board, the performers its daring players, and the audience their eager accomplices—just the way we love to present live performance at Acte 2 Théâtre.
