Précoce - Cycle 1 

In the beginning, there was the cube.

With this simple shape, the Compagnie des Bestioles builds a whole new world – one that is still waiting to be explored. Forget geometry and gravity – here, imagination takes the lead! 

More than a performance, Hippocampe is a sensory experience. Music and light set the rhythm of emotion, while movement defines space. At the end of this dreamlike journey along a path of cubes, the audience discovers a world where anything is possible.

Information about the company

The Compagnie des Bestioles combines contemporary texts with a poetic-scenographic, often non-narrative approach to theater and creates for young audiences sensual, interdisciplinary experiences that foster closeness and participation.
