The Taste of Olives
An all audience show from 7 years old
In her family house’s attic, Laura founds some objects that belonged to her ancestors who used to be musicians coming from countries around the Mediterranean Sea. From one object to the other, from one story to the other, from one century to the other, a wire is going to weave : leave, travel, arrive, adapt, construct...Between circus and music, between reality and imagination, The Taste of Olives tells the story of migration, from uprooting to rooting. A poetic and playfull journey played by a singer, a circus artist, a cellist and a oudist-percussionnist.
