Sucrer les Fraises

Presented by CIE HORS DU TEMPS / CHASSELAUBE PRODUCTION / SÉSAM’PROD / JUMO PRODUCTION SUCRER LES FRAISES By Sébastien BIZEAU Directed by: Justine VultaggioWith Matthieu Le Goaster, Jérémie Lutz and Margaux Wicart FROM 8 YEARS OLD This is the story of Charlie, a scatterbrained child, and his grandmother who is losing her mind.

Adults say she's 'sugaring the strawberries' (a French idiom for being senile), but he doesn't quite see the connection.

Learning that his granny might end up in a mysterious house if she fails her check-up with the 'head doctor', Charlie is ready to do anything to help her find her way back to her memory.

What if forgetting was the best way to reinvent everything, so that what truly matters remains? A story told from a child's perspective, where the heart speaks what words can no longer convey.

This family show invites us, in a delightful blend of tenderness, humour, and poetry, to look differently at those who chase after their memory, their ideas, and then their very words. “Granny always sugared the strawberries! And so do I! ” Charlie “A slow brain is made to fly.

To make shapes in the sky, and dance with the clouds. ” Charlie
