The Show
The "Tropical Fairytale" revue by the SOLEIL DES TROPIQUES troupe is a vibrant tribute to the culture and soul of the French West Indies. This show reminds us that dance and music are much more than entertainment in the Caribbean: they are deep ties to our past and our identity.
The revue takes the form of a magical journey through the French and English West Indies, Santo Domingo, the Indian Ocean, Africa, and Latin America, culminating in a carnival with the audience in the heart of Rio.
This revue is much more than mere entertainment. It is a way to preserve and celebrate the history, resilience, and creativity of the West Indians. The dances and music recount the struggles for freedom, ancestral traditions, and the joys of island life.
It transports you into a whirlwind of colors, sounds, and emotions, where every movement is a celebration of life.
This show is suitable for all types of events: cabarets, festivals, works councils, weddings, cultural and professional events, CCAS, neighborhood parties... With 6 to 30 artists on stage or roaming depending on the event.
