SUCRER LES FRAISES

By Sébastien BIZEAU

Directed by Justine Vultaggio

With Matthieu Le Goaster, Jérémie Lutz and Margaux Wicart

FOR AGES 8 AND UP

This is the story of Charlie, a scatterbrained child, and of his grandmother, who is losing her own. The grown-ups say she is sucrer les fraises, but he cannot quite see the connection. Learning that his mamie risks ending up in a mysterious house if she fails her check-up with the doctor who looks after her head, Charlie is ready to do anything to help her find the way back to her memory. And what if forgetting were the best way to reinvent everything, so that what matters endures? A story told at a child's height, where the heart says what words can no longer convey.

This show, made for the whole family, invites us, through a delicious blend of tenderness, humour and poetry, to look differently at those who chase after their memory, their ideas and then their very words.

« Mamie a toujours sucré les fraises! Et moi aussi! Même que chez elle, on a le droit d'en mettre autant qu'on veut.  »

« Un cerveau lent, c'est fait pour s'envoler. Pour faire des figures dans l'ciel, et danser avec les nuages. Y'a plus qu'ça dans sa tête, le vent et les nuages.  »
