Show by Nathalie le Boucher, Eat Me If You Can or The story of the 3 little pigs
About
The show
A forest. At the edge of this forest, a river. On the other side of the river, a wheat field, and at the end of the wheat field, a farm. On this farm, there is a farmer, a farmer's wife, cats, roosters, hens, cows, sheep… and a sow, an enormous sow, with an enormously round belly. She is expecting babies. And then one morning, AyAyAyaïe! OuyOuyOuyouïe! ÏyÏyÏyeee… and BAM! POW! ZAP! she gives birth to 3 little pigs, all pink, all round, and so appetizing…
In this personal version of the Three Little Pigs, Nathalie Le Boucher has fun embodying the various characters and elements of this "mini-epic" that reveals and brings to life the adventures of three little beings who must show courage, determination, and imagination to escape the farmer who wants to turn them into pâté and the wolf who wants to feast on them…
Nathalie le Boucher
Trained in theater during her high school years, then initiated for 8 years in India in the traditional Kathakali dance-theater, Nathalie Le Boucher returned to France with the project of telling Indian mythology. She then turned to the art of storytelling. Supported by storyteller Bruno de la Salle, she works on a narrative form where she combines the art of gesture and movement with that of the spoken word. In this storytelling style that is her own, where both speech and body expression take their full place in an intimately linked performance, she tells Indian mythology as well as La Fontaine's Fables and other tales from here and elsewhere, for audiences ranging from adults to children and even early childhood.
And here is what she tells…
