PYTHAGORAs’ toolkit

11:15 am & 4:30 pm

Espace Orange, Édifice Wilder

"Legend has it that one day Pythagoras was amazed by the sounds that blacksmiths made when they struck their pieces of metal [...]. When he returned home, the Greek thinker hastened to explore sound and invent new instruments."

In this co-creation by Rachel Warr (Dotted Line Theatre) and Benjamin Oliver, performed by the musicians of Ensemble Paramirabo, our hero, the modern-day Pythagoras, invites children (but also adults) to follow him in his surreal, amusing and even danceable experiments.
