Les Caramels Fous present Les Casse-Bonbons au pays des Enchantés at Grand Point Virgule in Paris

The Caramels fous troupe presents its new creation Les Casse-Bonbons au pays des Enchantés, a musical comedy that promises laughter and emotion at the Grand Point Virgule theater in Paris, from May 24 to June 16, 2024. Written and directed by Denis Evrard, the play explores the themes of identity and self-acceptance with humor and sensitivity.

Founded on principles of tolerance and social commitment, Les Caramels fous is not just a non-professional theater group; it's an activist association that defends the LGBT cause through the prism of musical comedy. By reinterpreting classic texts and melodies, they create shows vibrant with humor and social reflection, tackling issues such as discrimination, racism and women's rights. With all-male participants on stage, supported by a mixed and diverse artistic team, Les Caramels fous continue to break down stereotypes while entertaining.

Denis Evrard, renowned for his unique approach to musical theater, directs and writes this show. With a career marked by success, Evrard once again brings his talent and passion for the stage, promising a memorable and poignant show.

Morgane, the story's young protagonist, feels trapped in a body that doesn't reflect her true identity - a girl in a boy's body. Her life takes a magical turn when Zebulon, the king of toys, invites her to his enchanted kingdom. There, Morgane can finally live freely, but this idyllic world may conceal a less fairytale reality. The show raises the question of whether happiness can really be found in a seemingly perfect world.
