Shows

A moment of visual and musical poetry to be shared with the family.

By Violaine Fournier and Cyrille Louge

What if music was a way of listening to the world?

Water streams, wind blows, fire crackles, footsteps resonate on earth... The world surrounding us rustles, vibrates, sings, as well as the amazing musical fruit in the center of this show. Three musician singers are going to open it, feel it, taste it and play with it gradually, as a way of (re)experiencing together the beginning of life. An awakening inspired by Mozart, Bach, Landi, Rossini... A moment of visual and musical poetry to be shared with the family.

The Show Tout Neuf ! is an awakening dreamlike immersion, recreating our very first connection to the world. Every birth replays somehow the world’s one. Tout Neuf !writes the poem of this journey, in nine steps. After the first astonishment of discovering oneself and the other ones, the whole world seems to be contained in a big mysterious egg... The interpreters will slowly unveil the nine pieces of this musical fruit, to first discover all its elements (air, water, fire, earth, metal) and then taste, touch, see, feel, listen to every sensations and emotions it creates. Every sound, object, material gradually turns into rhythms and melodies, become instruments, music, and this transformation tells us about the story of awakeness to the world.
