NORTH AMERICAN PREMIERE
Family Program!
Created especially for very young children, Le Petit B engages its audience through subtle choreography, interactive play and spatial exploration. Created by award-winning choreographer Marion Muzac and visual artist Émilie Faïf, this charming immersive experience is peopled by two dancers and warm, inviting objects. With a malleable scenic design that uses large, soft cushions to evoke the comfort of a mother’s breasts, this whimsical and poetic meditation on human bonds with material objects sets children free to frolic.
Duration: 30 minutes
