About this concert
EN: A young mosquito leaves his small town in the country to seek fame and fortune in the big city and fulfill his dream of playing in one of the greatest jazz bands of all time at Sid Villa’s Music Hall… The Storyville Mosquito is a live animated graphic novel that’s performed, filmed and scored in real time. A team of performers, musicians, foley artists and technicians cinematically bring the characters to life using miniature sets, puppets, multiple cameras and screens. The puppets tell the story accompanied by an original music soundtrack featuring a trio of musicians and Kid Koala on turntables, keyboards and electronics. The Storyville Mosquito speaks to the themes of honesty, improvisation, inner voice, style, and collaboration. It is the follow-up to Kid Koala’s hugely successful Nufonia Must Fall Live stage performance, further developing the emotion, the craft, the art and Kid’s skills as a composer, writer, and in this case, director. FR: Un jeune moustique quitte son village rural pour trouver la gloire et la fortune dans la grande ville et accomplir son rêve de jouer dans un des plus grands ensembles jazz de tous les temps au Music Hall de Sid Villa… The Storyville Mosquito est un roman illustré interprété, filmé et accompagné musicalement en direct. Une équipe d’interprètes, de musiciens, de bruiteurs et de techniciens feront vivre les personnages à l’écran à l’aide de décors miniatures, de marionnettes, de caméras et d’écrans multiples. Les marionnettes racontent l’histoire, accompagnées d’une bande sonore mettant en vedette un trio de musiciens et Kid Koala aux tables tournantes, aux claviers et aux instruments électroniques. The Storyville Mosquito joue avec les thèmes de l’honnêteté, l’improvisation, la voix intérieure, le style et la collaboration. Il s’agit de la prochaine étape après le spectacle très acclamé Nufonia Must Fall Live, poussant plus loin l’émotion, l’art et les talents de Kid comme compositeur, auteur et, dans ce cas, réalisateur.
