\"LE<\/p>\n

\"Every morning the children came to play in the garden of the Giant...\". \u2026Once upon a time there was a marvelous garden dotted with flowers where every afternoon, leaving school, the children invented extraordinary games. This garden was inhabited by a strange person, so solitary that he was called \"the Selfish Giant\". Returning from a long journey, the Giant heard the laughter of children playing in his garden, he chased them away and built a huge wall to prevent them from entering. Frost, Snow and the North Wind took hold of the garden; but the children dug a passage in the wall and brought back the joy and the colours of spring. The Giant then understood his selfishness and welcomed them forever into the garden...<\/p>\n

Oscar Wilde's tale is transformed into a 35' little opera, articulated in arias, duets, choirs, concertati, pantomimes... an initiation to the codes and rhythms of lyrical art, through a paradigmatic story of knowledge and acceptance of difference and a message of universal solidarity.<\/p>\n
