Description

Au commencement, des curieux personnages précieux et excentriques. Ils arrivent, se promènent, nous rencontrent, et tout à coup notre univers bascule dans le merveilleux : ils se transforment en d’imposants chevaux ivoires, légers et flamboyants. Ces êtres hors du commun nous emportent dans une cavalcade magique, étincelante et musicale.

Un homme tendre, à la fois conteur et joueur, les rejoint et les entraîne dans un enchaînement de tableaux chorégraphiés. Une valse, un tango, un orage, un manège, une joute… Les images du spectacle suscitent l’émotion, la liberté et la surprise à l’aide de mouvements, de danses et d’énergie, accompagnés par une musique tantôt douce, tantôt festive.

Puis le rêve est passé, les chevaux fantastiques d’en vont, laissant place aux étranges personnages du début, heureux d’avoir pu, le temps d’une histoire, nous faire découvrir leurs alter egos mythologiques.

Show for all audiences, mainly nocturnal, ambulatory and/or fixed, flexible and adaptable to any event.

The classic sequence of the show is as follows
- Musical parade (30')
- Fixed musical finale (25')

This process is completely adaptable to any event.

Possibilities of adaptation of the show: from 3 to 18 characters accompanied by one or more Sound Units for the strolling (vehicles diffusing the music of the show)
and accompanied by the character of the Man of the Slopes when we present the fixed part.

Public capacity: up to 5000 people depending on the version.

Number of artists on tour: from 4 to 30 people depending on the version

Before metamorphosis: pedestrian actors
The characters are 3.5m high and 2.5m wide after inflation. They inflate with air and are self-lighting. The legs and the head are articulated.

Option for large version of the show:
We can come with Pegasus, the giant, aerial character.
This version is necessarily presented at nightfall.
It is a volume of 10m long x 3m wide x 5m high (without counting the legs) inflated with helium.
Pegasus intervenes during the final of the show. It is not present during the strolling.
This version requires a location on site beforehand, as well as 5 more people on tour.
