PANIQUE DANS LE PIANO!
Information on the activity
Dates to come
Combining music and science, Mr. Z turns his piano into a machine in a bid to connect with Beethoven. But a mouse hiding in the instrument derails the experiment, taking Mr. Z on a fantastic journey on “the wings of music”. Fleeing from Death on his “mobile piano”, he crashes into a planet where two strange characters, Jo les machines and the hideous Croquenotes live. While everything seems to be turning into a real nightmare, the little mouse proves to be more useful than it would have seemed at first.
Inspired by the wonders of science, virtuoso handyman Joël da Silva delivers a performance at the crossroads of music, puppetry, shadows and object theatre. On his piano, he performs a score full of humour and candour, where great minds and small mice meet.
