A premiere of a work by Frank Martin! This performance by Contrechamps, created in collaboration with the Odyssée Frank Martin and RTS – Radio Télévision Suisse, and featuring a refreshing sound design by Jonathan Frigeri, marks the first-ever staging of this unique radio fairy tale. With hearts racing, we are led through an icy portal by fifteen performers and one actress, as they embark on a quest for adventure and solitude.
