Mireille Vachon
Costume Designer

Award-winning costume designer Mireille Vachon has enthralled Canadian theater-goers over the past two decades. Her most impressive qualities are no doubt her boundless imagination and creativity. Over the years she’s worked with the Montreal Just for Laughs Festival, the largest comedy festival in the world, and earned the respect of Quebec’s artistic community. Vachon, 40, gives Cavalia’s performers a fluid appearance with soft materials, such as silk.  Her goal was to make the performers’ clothing as comfortable as possible, leaving room to emphasize the animals’ movements.
