A storytelling evening, an invitation to travel along the Mississippi

Faraboles, the association that brings together storytellers from Nîmes, receives at the Petit Théâtre de la Placette Mojo Blue, Thursday, November 18 at 7:30 p.m., for an invitation to travel to the land of the Blues, along the Mississippi River. An evening around the story, but what is the story? “We often have the image of the storyteller, glasses on the tip of the nose, reading to children stories which speak of a bygone time, underlines Teddie Allin, member of the association. But no ! A large part of the tales are not to put between the ears of the children. No ! The storyteller, or the storyteller, does not read the story, she or he tells it, lives it! “

For Sofyan Ruel, who unfolds Mojo Blue alongside double bassist Stéphane Güde, “tales are like syntheses, they disarm and carry us away; men, women and children drink from them as from clear sources, fountains of youth. Each tale comes to me, it speaks to me, I live with it One day, I walked enough in this tale, I know it, its tastes, its smells, its music, its direction … That day, the tale tells me that it is time, that it is necessary that he resumes his journey through time and people. ” Here, the trip will therefore be on November 18, as part of the program Thursdays to dream. Note that this show has been postponed twice already because of confinements and the closure of places of cultivation. This time will be the right one. Mojo Blue is the story of little Samuel, guided by an old blind man, who discovers the power of music from the southern United States. Sofyan Ruel tale, Stéphane Güde subtly vibrates his double bass, the time of this musical journey into the world of Blues.
