Au Cardinal Borgne
(& autres fantasmagories sur roulettes) - création juin 2024
Magic & small-scale illusions for a large caravan
Magic, piano, mentalism... Through the historical recreation of an imaginary venue, Raoul Lambert presents a new sideshow experience in a unique setting. Featuring a revolutionary acoustic sound system and an oversized 33-seat tiered seating area, *Le Cardinal Borgne* is a mobile, Italian-style theater designed to offer the world the wildest gifts: the suspension of disbelief and the reclaiming of dreams as a weapon of intellectual self-defense. Magic, illusion, and the thrill of the impossible—right on your doorstep!
