On a rainy night, deep in the Ardennes, Martin Martin has to bury his father. He has no idea at that point that the discovery of a handwritten notebook is about to draw him into a dizzying quest through History and across the continents. Fifteen years later, in the heart of the Algerian desert, a mother and her daughter vanish mysteriously.

They have been drawn in by the account of a stranger, in search of a heap of books stamped with a strange chalice, and of a colossal treasure, accumulated across the ages by a legendary secret society. Le Porteur D’Histoire by Alexis Michalik was created in 2011 and won two Molières in 2014 (best author, best direction). Touring since 2012, it has given more than 4,000 performances in France and abroad (from San Francisco to Beirut, Nouméa, via Tahiti…).

Audiences are swept into a wild, hypnotic whirl, carried through several stories and eras, accompanied by a multitude of colourful characters.
