About
Experience the adventures of a pirate child in the Indian Ocean!
Augustin Volubile Poivre is 6 years old when he becomes the captain of a pirate ship.
To flush out the Maharajah of Pondicherry's spice treasure, Augustin and his crew (the children in the audience) will cross the Indian Ocean on the back of a humpback whale, trek through the jungle among orangutans, escape tigers, break into a candy palace...
Augustin Pirate of the Indies is a journey where you smell the spices live; both instructive, thunderous, festive, interactive, full of invention and good humor!
