Rhymes for the piano, a toy piano, flute and musical saw, such is the amazing composition of this show. Élise Caron manages incredibly well to combine classical music, clever arrangements and nursery rhymes for little ears, or even tiny ears. Her voice takes on all possible registers, from opera style to whisper. She moves forward through the maze of a magic imaginary world. On the stage, two musicians accompany her singing, wonderfully fitting her play on words and play on her voice.And suddenly “ the barbies and the bores, the ponies and the chores” softly bridge the gap between child and adult. “Should you wish to escape grey days and enter dreamland, you must go and listen to Élise Caron. One feels like a spellbound child in the castle of a fairy tale. Her radiant presence, her flawless face, her voice now warm as the milk you drink when it has been freezing outside, now sweet as gingerbread, now as bright as a tiara,. In a nutshell an enchanting moment.”
