The Miracle Ball

It grants a wish to anyone who holds it in their hands, but only one wish!

You have one wish. What would you wish for? One day, Milu, a child from a distant land, finds a miracle ball. It grants a wish to anyone who holds it in their hands, but only one wish! What should Milu wish for? Milu can’t decide.

However, when the ball ends up in the hands of the adults, the previously tranquil life in the village changes rapidly. But are the people happier now?

The audience watches artist Sandrine Calmant as she draws pictures in the sand. They appear on a large screen. In these images, the artist moves around her shadow puppets, making the story come to life. Musician Jean Jadin accompanies this wondrous experience with piano and a celesta glockenspiel. Jean and Sandrine turn the old fairy tale into a poetic picture theater in which children can indulge in the enchanting interplay of imagery and music.
