The CANA
The Compagnie des Airs Sauvages imagined this place, and the town hall of Creully-sur-Seulles made it possible!
Located in the former stables of the Château de Creully, the CANA, or Maison des Musiques de Tradition Orale, is a cultural third place where stories are shared, knowledge is passed on, audiences meet, and artistic creations are made and performed.
Workshops, classes, musical gatherings, residencies, concerts, and events take place here.
Made up of three main rooms, including an intimate performance space (49 seats), it offers a cultural season constantly connected to oral tradition and rooted in local dynamics.
The CANA is a machine for weaving connections!
Workshops
Workshops take place on Sundays so as many people as possible can attend. They are based on several principles:
- a different relationship to time
- teaching based on oral transmission
- unique themed modules
- time for group practice
- accessibility

Events
The company offers an eclectic program around oral tradition: a concert season, themed film series, meetings and talks, artistic residencies and showings, amateur evenings, and musical gatherings. Indoors (performance hall) or outdoors (park), events punctuate the year just like workshops and classes, and give the CANA its role as a cultural third place.

Canatypik
Special evenings at the CANA focused on bringing local people together. Citizen cafés or a “canapéro”, these gatherings are organized regularly to bring different uses together, with associations around an idea, a theme, or an event.
And of course, there’s music!
