How are stories born? Where do they come from?
Our two characters live surrounded by books and know a thing or two about the subject. Drawing on this experience, they’ll share with the audience the essential ingredients of a good story, starting with the most important one: imagination!
Here, there’s no need to speak in public: the children are invited to draw before the show. Their creations are then fed into the “story machine.” Before their wide-eyed, amazed gazes, the actress invents unique adventures on the spot, guided by the children’s sketches and the surprising melodies of her musician partner!
A participatory, warm, and joyful experience that shows young and old alike that we all have the power to create!
