Bonfire is an immersive evening in Montreal, Canada, built around a campfire. Staged at Théâtre Paradoxe, it is less a conventional performance than a shared experience, where the audience is invited to settle in, listen and take part.
What the evening is like
The event is centred on a campfire, with the sounds of the forest surrounding the room. Those soundscapes set the mood, so the evening feels closer to a night outdoors than to an ordinary night at the theatre. The atmosphere is quiet and communal, shaped around the fire and the people gathered around it.
A defining part of Bonfire is its singing. The songs, described as ones that live within us, are meant to be shared, so the evening works as a collective musical moment as much as something to watch.
