"Legend has it that one day Pythagoras was amazed by the sounds that blacksmiths made when they struck their pieces of metal [...]. When he returned home, the Greek thinker hastened to explore sound and invent new instruments."
In this co-creation by Rachel Warr (Dotted Line Theatre) and Benjamin Oliver, performed by the musicians of Paramirabo, our hero, the modern-day Pythagoras, invites children aged 3 to 12 (but also adults) to follow him in his surreal, amusing and even danceable experiments.
