Musical tale for young audiences aged 3 to 8 by Laurent Deschamps and Denis Benoliel
Composers: Liz Cherhal, Baptiste Brondy, and Peter Sallamandi
In this humorous and interactive musical tale, music and songs with Celtic sounds, puppets, and theatrical play combine to trace the journey of the elf Ving’Cent who wants to marry the princess. A series of events will occur in the form of math-related questions that must be answered to progress in the story. The clever elf will encounter characters from fairy tales, such as Princess Quatr’Ine, King Numéric, Fairy Calculette, or Witch Aboss’ des Maths. Respecting the mechanics of traditional and heroic tales, while treating it with humor in language, rhythm, and careful staging, the tale aims to show the usefulness of mathematics in everyday life, while demystifying their seemingly difficult side.
Duration: approximately 50 minutes
