What people are saying about
La Troupe du Jour
Excerpts from the article "40 Years of History at La Troupe du Jour," Radio-Canada, 2025.
"We decided to start our own theatre. A theatre that reflects the Fransaskois voice, that reflects our reality."
Alphonse Gaudet
"La Troupe du Jour has always been a meeting place [...] for the Fransaskoisie [...], but also for theatre lovers in Saskatoon."
Gilles Poulin-Denis
"If it hadn't been for the Troupe being ready to stage my plays, I probably would have written in English. It's as simple as that."
Madeleine Blais-Dahlem
"The next generation is here. There are young people who are inspired and who have opportunities to try their hand at theater in school or elsewhere."

Byrun Boutin-Maloney 2026-2027 Season Artist
This season, each show has its own visual world. La Troupe du Jour invited Fransaskois artist Byrun Boutin-Maloney, based in Estevan, to create an original linocut illustration for each of the five productions in Growing Together.
A multidisciplinary artist, musician and writer, Byrun is known for his distinctive visual style, featuring bold colours, surreal compositions and imagery rich in symbolism and storytelling. He discovered linocut printmaking in 2026 during the Francophone artistic residency Confluence at PAVED Arts Studio in Saskatoon.
Created especially for La Troupe du Jour, his five illustrations draw inspiration from each work in the season while coming together as a collection that gives our 41st season an artistic identity all its own.
