HEREDIS - ECHOES OF THE PAST

LONDON, UK - 6th MAY, 2026 — A spectacular new stage experience is about to take the spotlight. Circus artists, acrobats, actors and dancers join forces to bring HEREDIS to life — an original stage creation using the worlds of the Assassin’s Creed™ video game series.
 

“This project brings together two worlds: Ubisoft, a global leader in video games, and The 7 Fingers, a leading force in the performing arts. We are thrilled to collaborate with La Tribu, Behaviour Interactive and Décibels Productions to bring this ambitious creation to life — one that pushes the boundaries between video games and live performance,” said Nassib El-Husseini, CEO of The 7 Fingers.

Directed by Sébastien Soldevila (Pub Royal, Séquence 8, Cuisine & Confessions, Sochi Olympic Opening Ceremony (The 7 Fingers), Crystal (Cirque du Soleil)), HEREDIS brings together a team of leading Montreal-based creators:

On stage, 17 performers deliver a high-energy, two-hour performance blending acrobatics, urban parkour, choreographed combat, and physical feats within large-scale immersive visual environments drawn from Assassin’s Creed games—transporting audiences through time.

With HEREDIS, Sébastien Soldevila creates an original stage work based on the Assassin’s Creed series, bringing its historical, physical and cinematic dimensions to the stage. “Assassin’s Creed is deeply inspiring material. It’s a rich, physical, and historically charged world that naturally lends itself to the stage.”

The show follows a young man searching for his father, who disappeared years ago. On his 25th birthday, a mysterious letter leads him to the HEREDIS program. This quest becomes the starting point of a journey across centuries…

Bringing Assassin’s Creed to the stage 

For Ubisoft, HEREDIS represents a new way to bring the Assassin’s Creed brand to life: “Sébastien and his team have embraced this universe with both rigor and sensitivity. This collaboration opens a new way to connect with broader audiences,” said Aymar Azaïzia, Transmedia and Business Development Director.

HEREDIS will premiere at Théâtre Maisonneuve at Place des Arts in Montreal starting 3rd December, 2026, presented by La Tribu. This marks the launch of a world tour, continuing at the Casino de Paris beginning 21st January, 2027, presented by Décibels Productions.

Founded in Montreal in 2003, The 7 Fingers create, produce, and present multidisciplinary performances. Guided by an intimate approach, the company has developed a unique stage language where acrobatic virtuosity meets storytelling. Performing on major stages around the world, The 7 Fingers place emotion and intimacy at the heart of the experience, using acrobatics as a powerful narrative tool.
