The show introduces young audiences to the world and love that Debussy devoted to childhood. It begins with the piano suite Children’s Corner, which he composed inspired by his three-year-old daughter, Emma-Claude, and continues with the ballet La boîté à joujoux (“The Toy Box”), a ballet for children in one act and four scenes, composed in 1913. Here too, Debussy drew inspiration not only from the very popular tradition of puppet ballet, but also from the world of childhood, and so the toys come to life, emerge from the box where they had been stored, and take us on many adventures.
