"La Belle aux cheveux d'or": 18th-century meets rock spirit

"La Belle aux cheveux d'or - Conte des Fées" is adapted from tales written in the 18th century, from which the three fairies who tell the story emerge.
The staging is totally offbeat. Accompanied by the baroque viola da gamba, the show is packed with references to Tim Burton, Pixar and Miyazaki !
Will the king of the neighbouring country be able to conquer La Belle, thanks to Avenant, his faithful servant?
To persuade the young princess, and with the help of his dog Cabriole, a large carp, a raven and an owl, young Avenant must find a lost ring, kill the terrible giant Galifron, confront two dragons and descend into a pit full of snakes...
A whole program: a little rock, mostly baRock and full of humor ! This fast-paced creation is a family-friendly nugget, all glitter and music.
For ages 4 and up and almost an hour without getting bored

PRESS COVERAGE :

THE NEW YORK TIMES "There's a particular pleasure in coming across a little gem like 'Contes des fées', a brilliant, family-friendly creation. It's as if fairy dust had been sprinkled over Avignon: it floated in the air. "

L'ECHO Go and see Contes des Fées. Aurore Evain's work is colossal".
