DETAILS
TESTIMONIES
SHOW: PILE UP
“Our family just loved this show by Joanie Papillon which has its place on any scene! First, the show is super interactive, the kids can interact with the artists and the puppets throughout – and even play with the puppets after the performance. The puppets made from recycled materials are fascinating for the children. This is a puppet show as much as it is a dance performance and music!"
- Cyrille, Father
SHOW: PILE UP
“This show is magnificent, perfect to stimulate children’s imagination and inspire their artistry!”
- Emilie Belanger, Director at Le Jardin Musical
SHOW: PILE UP
“Beautiful show, the adults loved it just as much as the kids! Joanie and Anthony easily adjust to their audience, they captivate their attention and interact with them throughout the performance. The children laughed a lot and were mesmerized with the large puppets!”

SHOW: PILE UP
“You built a quality multidisciplinary show which grasped our young spectators’ attention from beginning to end. We greatly appreciated the combination of dance, music, theatre and clowning, few performances offer this much variety! Your passion was passed onto your audience! We thank you for the time you spent with us so the children could take pictures and manipulate your puppets.”
Myriam Dupuis, Marieville Cultural Coordinator
SHOW: PILE UP
“No doubt the kids will empty their recycle bin to make their own puppets when they get home! Pile Up is great for teaching environmental awareness for youth.”
- Municipality of Napierville
