Spectacle « The king is bored »

Storytelling, puppets, and Celtic harp by the company "La petite mélodie".

“Gentlemen, ladies, friends of troubadours and poets, lend us your ears! We have come to tell you a story to enchant and delight you: Once upon a time, there was a very young king, who had everything one could wish for. He lived in a splendid castle, surrounded by loyal subjects who tended to his every need. Each day he rode long horseback journeys, savored the finest and most delicious dishes, and played chess… In short, all seemed perfect! But one day, a mysterious illness befell him, a strange sickness that no medicine or doctor could cure. Until one autumn evening, an old man, cloaked in a robe sparkling with stars, knocked softly at the castle door…” Two troubadours will lead young and old into the heart of the Middle Ages, accompanied by the enchanting sounds of instruments from across the world. String puppets, poetry, and songs weave rhythm and magic into this story.
