A fantastical tale from France, Le Chat Noir is bursting with the finest ingredients from Celtic folklore. There is a wicked stepmother, a wealthy prince, a feckless father, a beautiful stepdaughter, her foolish stepsister, a crackle of magic and of course the deliciously mysterious black cat.
When the prince proposes to his true love, no one could be happier in all the land. That is, until their wedding day when the sinister stepmother switches her own plain and ungainly daughter for the beautiful bride to be. Mayhem and mischief ensue as we enter the fabulous world of magic and sorcery, guided by a fabulous feline Le Chat Noir.
Le Chat Noir will be performed with the breathtaking visual style of this award-winning international company, using masks from Trestle Theatre, puppets and original music.
Théâtre Sans Frontières' usual joie de vivre will ensure that Le Chat Noir captures the hearts and imagination of both young and old. |
