Petit Chat Pois Barbe

4 tales by Charles Perrault in Shadow Theatre.
For all ages 7 and up.
Les Yeux Creux company. Organised by Gouarek Stage Impro.

A very personal version of some of Charles Perrault's tales, a bit for fun but also to revisit these universal myths.

Parents so destitute that they abandon their children in the woods... A princess who has to cover herself in bruises to prove the legitimacy of her rank... A few cat lies and poof, a deer becomes a prince...

All these tales dealt with themes that still speak to us today. All in shadow, using simple paper silhouettes. The simplicity of the experience leaves plenty of room for improvisation and even for getting lost in the audience's complicity.

Duration approx. 1 hour
