On the poster for the show, a typewriter and flowers, lots of colorful flowers.

On the sheet that comes out of the typewriter, these few words signed Boris Vian: " 

This story is entirely true, since I imagined it from start to finish

 ".

That's what the author of "

L'écume des jours

 " said, this novel in which the characters talk to mice and the water lilies prevent them from breathing.

A light, airy novel, carried by the breath of jazz, love, humor and fantasy, with very highs and very lows, exacerbated feelings and colorful characters, including the company " Les Joues Rouges” put on a musical theater show full of emotion and inventiveness.
