About us
Through highly visual staging, which is as much magic as it is theatre, Robert Lepage revisits, Needles and Opium, 20 years after its first production. A new scenography, original images, and an acrobat onstage compliments Cocteau’s words. The result is a production with mesmerizing effects, a journey into the night that puts us under a spell and leads us into the light.
