After « Bigre  », Molière for Best Comedy 2017, the irresistible comedic duo Pierre Guillois and Olivier Martin-Salvan invite you on an imaginary journey in a fireworks display of cardboard scraps, a fusion of the wild antics of a cartoon cabaret and a Shakespearean epic.

He leaves the plains of the Great North, cursed by a mermaid accidentally caught. He escapes on skates, a scooter, a cardboard plane. He discovers Scotland, heads south again on a mule's back, murders a few bagpipers along the way, always searching for love. But the actor in a three-piece suit remains seated; that's the madness of the show. His sidekick in a swimsuit bustles around him with hundreds of pieces of cardboard on which are written the names of countries, accessories, or creatures encountered. These incredible adventures, unfolded with ingenuity and gags, are an explosion of brilliant and whimsical ideas.

A poetic and crazy odyssey!
