With Les Ballades Enfantines (Childhood Ballads), singers Domitille and Amaury de Crayencour take children and their parents on a trip to Paris and along the River Seine to discover the unusual and bubbly side of the French capital city through the musings of a mischievous local girl. Accompanied by Marc Pinon (guitar, keyboard and percussion), who creates a jazzy-swing universe, and Hélène Druvert, illustrator of the set based on a childhood world full of funny little details, the little troupe transports the audience through the city’s main neighbourhoods, monuments and parks. On the way, they bump into a ballerina at the opera, fly through the sky on a travelling kite, sail on a beautiful white boat, sing in the rain and cruise along the carefree river! By performing some of the most iconic French childhood songs – from Carême, Prévert, Trénet, and Salvador – children discover famous poems from the French heritage while adults get to rediscover them.
