In this unprecedented operatic production, a comic strip unveils live before your eyes... Singing, illustrations, video projections and staging come together to recount four highly imaginative stories: The fight of a super heroine against the evil Mr. Dégoût, a fifties love story, the detective enquiry of François and his dog Pax and an interstellar combat. Never seen before!
