JASON ET LES ARGONAUTES

Deux acteurs! Toute une armée de personnages d’action! Une grande aventure! Après en avoir été banni alors qu’il n’était qu’un bébé, Jason retourne à son royaume afin de renverser son vilain oncle et reprendre sa place sur le trône. Mais avant tout, Jason et son équipe d’Argonautes doivent mettre les voiles pour un voyage fantastique autour du monde afin de trouver la Toison d’or et la rapporter pour restaurer l’ordre une fois pour toutes. Avec ses monstres incroyables, ses dragons dangereux et de l’action de style cape et épée, le mythe grec classique prend vie devant nous avec un rebondissement amusant et hilarant qui fera rire les spectateurs jusqu’à la fin de l’histoire.

Programme éducatif : narration d’histoires, théâtre, jeu d’interprétation, relations avec les autres, amitié, environnement, coopération, communication, exploration des idées et des perceptions, expression artistique, observation et écoute attentive.
