Les saules chantants et le lit magique

Singing Willows and The Magical Bed is a musical theatre production with integrated BSL for young audiences.

The performance is brought to life by two musical theatre actors, a BSL performer, and a live musician on stage. It continues the final story from the original Chantez des saules book, while also drawing inspiration from the childhood of Alexandra Borghino, founder of the creative company.

Visually rich and imaginative, the production combines heartfelt storytelling with playful audience participation, original songs, enchanting visuals, and multilingual storytelling, including integrated BSL. The audience is invited to dream, laugh, and explore together on this magical adventure.

Le spectacle dure 60 minutes et s'adresse aux enfants du primaire. Il sera ensuite présenté au Festival d'Édimbourg le 22, 23, 29 et 30 août.
