Prendre racine
in partnership with SANA (Newcomer Welcome Service)
๐๐๐๐๐ฟ๐๐ ๐๐ผ๐พ๐๐๐ is a project we have been working on for three years in partnership with SANA Trois-Riviรจres (Service d’accueil des nouveaux arrivants, or Newcomer Welcome Service), and it’s simply thrilling!
Last year, we created small monster puppets from the participants’ countries. This year, we challenged ourselves to recreate them in large format!
During monthly meetings, participants were invited to enter the world of Les Sages Fous by creating their own puppets.

THE MONSTER BALL
The day after Halloween, organized in collaboration with SANA Trois-Riviรจres and the Conservatoire de musique de Trois-Riviรจres.
The language of music and the language of silent puppet theater have in common, beyond our words and regardless of our origins.
Under the direction of the talented Philippe Bournival and accompanied by the excellent Kurdish musician Alan Othman, the students of the Trois-Riviรจres Conservatory of Music brought the puppets to life by exploring new, strange, and captivating sounds.
The puppets were created by newcomers, first in miniature format, then in grand format!
This latest edition honored the end of this three-year project between Les Sages Fous and SANA and took place as part of the Conservatory’s 60th anniversary celebrations!
