PYTHAGORAs’ toolkit
Espace Orange, Édifice Wilder
1435 rue de Bleury
"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 Ensemble Paramirabo, our hero, the modern-day Pythagoras, invites children (but also adults) to follow him in his surreal, amusing and even danceable experiments.
