Karayib. Tales and Islands

Storytelling performance with Dédé Duguet

Yé krik! Yé krak!
Yé mistikrik! Yé mistikrak!
Is the courtyard asleep?
No, the courtyard is not asleep.
Well then, if the courtyard is awake, let it be carried away on the wings of tales to hear beautiful stories from the Caribbean islands.
From Cuba to Trinidad, via Haiti and Martinique, storyteller Dédé Duguet and his "Tout-monde" talking stick will take you on a journey across the blue continent of nascent oxygen.
Krik! Krak!
