Show summary


Specializing in creatures whose existence remain a mystery, Édouard Lavase has dedicated his life to the search for fantastic animals. Always accompanied by his flock of jovial Geese and his two Swiss Dragons, discovered thirty years ago in the canton of Lausanne, he travels the world to meet these elusive species. During a stop in Bangkok, he captures a Flying Snake from the Quetzalcoatl family, known as the feathered serpent, whose precious Quetzal feathers have disappeared due to global warming. His journey also leads him to make an exceptional discovery: a gigantic Egg of unknown origin. With these incredible finds, The Great Expedition now stops in your city, ready to unveil its wonders... and its surprises!


This performance is intended for a family audience, with intentions unlikely to generate conflicts or crowd movements. The performance takes place without an intermission, and the actor-manipulators of the inflatable structures interact with the audience during the show.
