Welcome
La Troupe du Jour would like to warmly thank all its funders, partners, audience members, artists, and everyone who supported us this season. Your invaluable support allows us to continue bringing French-language theatre to life.
We can’t wait to see you next season to celebrate the 40th anniversary of La Troupe du Jour together! Some wonderful surprises await!
Land Acknowledgement
La Troupe du Jour acknowledges that it has been granted the privilege of working on Treaty 6 territory, land of the Nêhiyawak (Plains Cree), Nahkawininiwak (Saulteaux), Dakota and Lakota (Sioux), Nakota (Assiniboine), Denesuline (Dene/Chipewyan), and homeland of the Métis.
As first inhabitants of Treaty 6 territory, they have the right to be treated with respect and dignity. We support their right to sovereignty, equality, safety, access to high quality and culturally sensitive healthcare, education, family services, justice, and to never again have essentials like food, clean drinking water, and basic human rights and freedoms withheld from them.
We are grateful to be able to benefit from the knowledge they have accumulated over millennia: their wisdom, talents, contributions, successes, and the beauty of their cultures. We vow to be good stewards of these lands, and to participate in reconciliation efforts however we can.
