Capitaine futur is opening his testing ground for art forms and stories for children. He has invited authors from far and wide to spin tales in new ways by mixing forms of theatrical writing, scenography techniques, reading, sound artistry and bizarre technology.
His lab bench is scattered with scraps of amazing stories that connect the dots, intersect, ricochet, mimic and mask. There are tales that dissolve into laughter, others in which screens are magic mirrors, where everything can be broken down and put back together, which change from one form to another and play with Capitaine futur, a character who possesses narrative superpowers and speeds headlong into the millennium on his Capsulo.
