The son of a circus performer, Isidore grew up on the road. But after his father's accident, he had no choice: he had to settle down and go to school like everyone else.
No more learning through the thousand and one adventures of nomadic life... He arrives in the middle of the year in Mrs Tinguely's class and quickly realises that here, there are rules and constraints of a completely different kind. Suffice to say that his integration was not going to happen without a few bumps along the way! At break time, he met Anaïs, a dreamy and rebellious young girl who was much more talented at drawing than at learning her letters. The two played truant and embarked on an incredible journey. But the dynamic duo will soon be caught by Madame Tinguely, the tenacious teacher, who is determined not to let them go...
Combining shadow theatre and live music, the staging is brimming with ingenuity. With plenty of humour, creativity and energy, it questions the place of non-conformist souls in such a carefully ordered society. A colourful exploration of the great circus that is learning about life!
