16:30 Show "CONCERT à HISTOIRES" by Cie Atchalo. Theatrical song. For all audiences. A duo of actor-musicians humorously take on the initiation story of a young basket-maker. Somewhere between a concert, a story and a show, everyone tells their own story, making the hero's adventures their own. A mysterious undine, a spirited horse, a mythological stag and a lecherous ogress all come together. Hélios Quinquis and Hélène Lafont take us on a poetic and musical journey with a gypsy flavour. A "story concert" to sing and laugh about love, water and life, with one guitar, two voices and four feet.
