Tale - THE PRINCE AND THE LION
In a distant kingdom, a very brave, loving, and friendly prince is born.
Christmas there is unique and different. Among lights, gifts, and special foods, all princes, upon turning 18, must face a lion. This is the tradition!
The prince is not so brave when it comes to this kind of feline, and upon turning 18, he discovers during the Christmas party that he will have to face the Royal Lion.
Frightened, the prince runs away and embarks on a charming journey through three magical lands where, astonishingly... there is always a lion!
At the end of his journey, the prince realizes that as long as he avoids confronting the lion, he will find them everywhere. From there, he returns home, and a duel takes place between the prince and the lion on Christmas. The entire family comes together to help him in a hilarious and tender Christmas that is a true love letter to those we cherish.
Magician Duarte
The show by Magician Duarte is full of energy, surprises, and is specially designed for children. There will be plenty of participation from the kids in the performance, where objects appear, disappear, and change color in the blink of an eye. It will be trick after trick, laughter after laughter.
Plastic Expression Workshops - Ana Amaral
Exploring children's creativity together with those they love the most is what these workshops are all about.
With the themes of St. Martin's Day and Christmas, we bring love, imagination, creation and, above all, lots of fun to the table. The aim is to create something for the family, whether it's characters of your choice, colorful objects, hidden wishes or things with other senses, the important thing is to share a lot of fun.
We'll enjoy painting chestnuts or whatever our imagination tells us to do, and we'll take objects of love to hang in our nativity scene. So without much restriction, but with a lot of love in our hearts, we'll be creating on a Sunday. Get ready for discovery, great little artists are revealed without being prepared.
Storytellers and lots of fun
