Cultural activities
Our team is very happy to answer questions about the unique world of masks.
Masks are not only beautiful objects to look at, they are exceptional tools. A mask can entertain, soothe, heal, protect or hide the wearer. It always has an impact on the audience and never leaves them indifferent.
Theatre Transformations organizes mask-related events throughout the year, including workshops, discussions and conferences for both amateurs and professionals.
Check out our Visu'elles festival events and our annual workshop program or contact us if you would like us to create something special for your organisation.

For those who don't have a specific project in mind, you can choose a simple story and we will help you through the process.
Mask play
An introduction to the half mask, with a special emphasis on solo play.
Mask making
A simple introduction to mask making. Ideal if you are thinking of using masks in a creation but not quite sure you want to make them yourself.
