In La Forêt Ébouriffée, it is about Racine, a little boy like no other, whose forest has grown on his head no one noticed. Fleeing his disturbing grandmother and his fellow scoffs, he runs to take refuge there. It is then the beginning of a frantic race, causing an extraordinary series of metamorphoses. Helped in his adventures by his faithful friend Meï, he will gradually grow up and learn to overcome his fears to better meet himself and others.
Through this initiatory journey, the choreographers depict with grace and gentleness the world of childhood, the difficulty and pleasure of growing up.
A place of withdrawal and abandonment, of danger and wonder, the forest has nourished imaginations since the dawn of time. It becomes for Racine an ambivalent place that he will have to discover and tame to better grow and know himself.
