L’Estran, a former seaweed-harvesting vessel, is the subject of a restoration-site visit at Douarnenez’s Port-musée. The boat was built at the Tanguy shipyard for a working life on the Breton coast. Its career took it to Audierne and the waters around the island of Sein, before it eventually ceased operations.
Guillaume et Harold: Gaëlle Bourges’s Tapestry Tale

Physical theatre and object theatre meet in the hands of Gaëlle Bourges, who blends eras and styles with humour and poetry. Guingamp, at Place du Champ-au-Roy, holds a staging for ages six and over.
