In a small suburban flat, Léon, a lonely old man, dreams of reconnecting with others. As he prepares a meal, his everyday life is transformed: vegetables, kitchen utensils and inanimate objects come to life, drawing him into a poetic and colourful fantasy world. Through this escapade between a gloomy reality and a vibrant imagination, Léon rediscovers a long-forgotten vitality, blending laughter, tenderness and moments suspended in time. But this magical interlude gives way to a poignant reflection on the loneliness of older people.

This multi-technique puppet show, inspired by black theatre and bunraku, invites children aged 6 and over and their families to explore, with delicacy and wonder, the often-hidden treasures of the generations that came before us.

Set against a backdrop of silence and spellbinding sound effects, Léon is an ode to social connection, to listening, and to the poetry of everyday life. A unique intergenerational experience, full of humanity and emotion.
