THÉÂTRE DE LA GUIMBARDE, Βέλγιο
Θέατρο ΠΟΡΤΑ
Παρασκευή 9/5, 18:00(διάρκεια 40’ + 10’ διάδραση)

On the roof of a Kassena house, a woman mixes clay and water and starts making
marks. Accompanying her is a musician playing the N’goni string instrument. The
melodic sound and their voices blend and interweave. Together, they sketch the
patterns that will brighten the walls of their houses.
Tiébélé echoes the magnificent prints left on their homes by the women of a village
in Burkina Faso. It combines earth and song, organic matter and poetry. A creation
that links the gestures of these African women to toddlers’ first drawings.

For many years, THÉATRE DE LA GUIMBARDE has built bridges between Europe and West Africa through its artistic approach of encouraging different perspectives and authentic sharings. Born from this desire to celebrate respectful international
exchanges, Tiébélé offers a delightful experience that resonates with both toddlers
and their guardians.
