With words she drives a hole into prejudices, and forges a path to dignity. Intertwining epic accounts and acrobatic feats, The Nonexistent powerfully and boldly recounts a modern-day tragedy, that of migrant children fighting to carve out a place for themselves in the sun.
A story of resilience and courage, beautifully shared through acrobatic movement theatre and live music. Together the audience and artists explore the modern calamity and complex global issues of migration and exile in this English language version of The Nonexistent.

“With The Nonexistent, the duo of Yves Simard (ideator and director) and Pascal Brullemans (text) created a story that is very closely connected to current events: a story of survival, identity, resilience that is both upsetting and poignant. This production is not “just young-audience theatre”, it is indispensable and essential theatre, regardless of one’s age.” – David Lefebvre, Mon(Theatre).qc.ca, November
