Children's Play “The Great Bazaar of Emotions,” or When Your Heart Goes “Boom,” “Yuck,” or “Yippee!”

Accompanied by Captain Ordi-Paf, a computer assistant who is sometimes very cooperative… or very stubborn, he’s about to reveal all the secrets of emotions. But nothing goes as planned. His Emotion Machine—a brilliant invention meant to explain joy, fear, anger, and sadness—refuses to turn on… eventually starts smoking… and explodes! A disaster? Not at all! For Professor TocToc, every mishap becomes an adventure. Through funny situations, mishaps, improvisations with the children, and a series of improbable “potions,” the emotions come one after another: fear that makes your legs shake, disgust that makes you wrinkle your nose, joy that makes you want to jump around, and sadness that calls for a hug… Amid laughter, surprises, songs, and little thrills, TocToc finally understands that emotions can’t be manufactured. They arise on their own, deep within our hearts, to speak to us, warn us, and guide us. A joyful, tender, and interactive show that helps children identify their emotions with humor and poetry.
