Parade, the circus of the brave

A spectacle of puppets, circus, magic and music

Music by Erik Satie (1866-1925), Francis Poulenc (1899-1963) and Igor Stravinsky (1882-1971)

Tío Pepe and the clown Chochotte is a pair of comedians who arrive at the town square. They set up a small circus tent but all the members of the company have disappeared. The only attraction is a small elephant called Babar. He wants to be an artist but is scared of people and does not want to come out on the strip. Our pair of artists will have to improvise a way for the show to continue, convince the elephant to do his big number, and that way make a little money for their next meal.

La Maquiné puts on a show inspired by the circuses of the past. It is full of energy, humour and warmth that will entertain an audience of all ages.
