The Librarian

Paul-Emile Dumoulin has worked at the library of his municipality for 25 years. He is serious, proud, but sometimes so clumsy. The shelves must be impeccable, each book in its place. But beware, when Paul Emile Dumoulin begins to read passages, he completely gets absorbed by the story and his taste for adventure reveals him in a new light. He gets carried away, a madness takes hold of him and he starts doing acrobatics, balances, juggling, break dance and beat box. A funny show that makes you want to read!

A word from the director

Reading has always been for me one of the most stimulating and accessible activities, which in addition promotes the development of language, interest in writing and imagination in remarkable ways in children. As for the library, it is a place of all possibilities, over the shelves, from novels to documentary books, a place so calm and yet so noisy with all these words locked behind the covers, these words which are waiting only for to be read to come to life and take the reader on an adventure, a distant country, a fiction or a love story. The show "Le Bibliothécaire" gives a voice to the books through Paul-Emile Dumoulin interpreted by Hippolyte, a multidisciplinary artist who largely contributed to the creation.

Culture MHM

“Le Bibliothécaire is an ambassador for the benefits of reading.”

Tohu.ca

“Embodied with brio by Hippolyte, a multidisciplinary artist, this comic and dynamic librarian has everything to make people laugh and want to read!”

Mon Théâtre

“The complicity between artist and audience is the great strength of this show. The children react instantly, let themselves be won over by literary fever, and even ask the librarian to continue reading his books.”

La Provence

“On stage, Hippolyte knows how to do it all: he's a complete artist who handles diabolo as well as Chinese mas, juggles, makes music, does perilous balancing acts... His clowning skills are enormous, with rictus, facial expressions and attitudes so evocative that the show is understandable in any language!”

Les Trois Coups

“A wacky, irresistible character, Hyppolyte gives books a voice and takes us on many adventures with him. It's a blast! Alone on stage, this clown, whose shoes are the only thing red, wets his shirt. An excellent show for the whole family.”
