Starring Maude Cyr-Deschênes, Olivier Dion, Matthieu Lévesque, Nathalie Simard, Océane Kitura Bohémier-Tootoo and Laurent Lucas, Evangéline is a sweeping historical musical with a modern twist. A visually stunning rendition of a saga born of the Indigenous land now known as Nova Scotia.

In 1755, the Acadians were expelled from their homes. Time has not fully healed the wounds. In this epic tale of legendary lovers, revolutionaries Evangéline and Gabriel are deported but their Acadian hearts still burn strong. To this day, heartrending memories of those times still linger, while the ties that bind the French and Mi'Kmaq nations live on. Evangéline and Gabriel can lead us along the path of hope and healing.
