A CRAZY CLOWNING ADVENTURE THAT WILL MAKE YOU WANT TO READ!
Synopsis
Paul-Émile Dumoulin ‘The Librarian’ has been working at his town’s library for 25 years. He’s serious and nervous, also proud and sometimes so clumsy. At first glance, Paul-Émile Dumoulin seems like just a regular librarian. He is serious, proud and very orderly. Every book is in its place on his impeccable shelves. The only problem? As soon as Paul-Émile gets his nose in a book, reality disappears, giving way to the slightly crazy worlds he discovers between the pages.
On his adventures, the very sensible librarian metamorphoses, he suddenly turns into strange and silly characters who perform acrobatics, balancing, juggling, break dancing and beatboxing. Just how far will reading take him? This show blends clowning, physical theatre and the circus arts. It invites young audiences to discover the passion of reading and the power of the imagination, which whisks readers away to faraway lands, on an adventure, or into a romance or thriller.
