The Boy the Forest and the Desert/Hervé

An unusual combination examining different kinds of knowledge. A quest for knowledge is at the heart of a music theatre piece composed by Kim B Ashton, incorporating narration, song and physical theatre with singers, actors and musicians all involved in the stage action.Truth is elusive and boundaries are blurred inThe Boy the Forest and the Desert.Then, in complete contrast, a journey of a different kind is described by talented performance artistHervé Goffingsthrough a collection of songs, dances and stories.(A busker of French African descent is adopted by a white Belgian couple.Hervé tells his story in the context of key historical moments, including the Paris riots of '68 and the Cuban Revolution.) Directed by Alexandre Barrière.
