Description

Parole d’eau, co-produced by Théâtre Motus and Djarama. Two friends, Mamby and Hélène, one living in Senegal, the other in Canada. What they have in common is burning feet, one on hot sand, the other in winter boots! What sets them apart is that one lives in an abundance of water, snow and ice, while the other fetches water, which she carries in basins.

“MAMBY: I think water transmits everything we say. Water hears all languages.”

This precious liquid, lacking in many places, is the main character of this show for children aged 6 to 12 and their families.

Duration: 55 minutes
Location: La Grande Salle, Place des Arts du Grand Sudbury
