Description

“La Manivelle” is a handcrafted, poetic carousel inspired by the sea and the world of Jules Verne. Whales, seahorses and the Nautilus submarine take children on a journey, all powered by hand using a large participatory crank.
Children are invited to ride a whale or a seahorse, or to board a lifeboat or pilot the Nautilus submarine. Another special feature: it runs without fuel or electricity, only powered by elbow grease. A large crank sets it in motion, and the audience is of course invited to take part. Activity for very young audiences No advance booking required.
