Watching your children play with the little toy trains (or playing with them yourself), have you ever caught yourself thinking that these same little trains could make a funny symphony? That's what actor and beatboxer Laurent Duprat has come up with, in a show as unusual as it is musical, presented at the Théâtre Paris-Villette during the February 2023 vacation.
For one hour, Laurent Duprat will show you live how musical compositions and soundscapes are constructed, using connected objects, small sound trains and human beatbox. For the occasion, the Boîte à Sel company, which presents the show, has imagined a whole system of small musical trains, which run on a network of circuits, arranged within a circular scenography.
