For the last 25 years, PAUL-ÉMILE DUMOULIN has worked in a municipal library.
He is serious, proud, though terribly clumsy. The shelves must be impeccable, publications carefully organised. But beware, when his passion for books gets a hold of him, he can’t help but plunge, head first, into their stories.
Overwhelmed with excitement, he starts doing acrobatics, performing feats of balance, juggling, break dancing and beat boxing. A show that highlights the power of literature as well as imagination.
The word of the Director M-H-D’Amours
Reading has always been a stimulating activity for me, and which in addition develops the cognitive functions and the imaginary of remarkable way in children. As for the library, it is the place of all possibles, from a shelf to another, from a novel to a documentary book, a place so quiet, and yet so noisy with all those words locked behind the covers, those words that just waiting to be read to come alive and take away their reader in an adventure, a distant country, a fiction or a love story.
The show The Librarian gives the word to books, through Paul-Emile Dumoulin, interpreted by Hyppolite, a multidisciplinary artist which has largely contributed to the creation.
