A nomadic festival geared towards young audiences, Pollen offers the opportunity to discover several artistic genres. Its ninth edition will visit the municipalities of Dreux, Vernouillet, Anet, Saint-Lubin-des-Joncherets, Nonancourt, Ezy-sur-Eure and Brezolles.
In a logic of emulation and complementarity, the organization wanted municipalities to be able to target school audiences. This approach allows the ages of the young spectators to vary from one year to the next. The festival will be launched on Wednesday January 22 at the Ar(T)senal with a puppet show open to all by reservation and free.
“Pollen allows us to bring a show to the community by having the know-how of a place dedicated to culture.”
Dance and theater
The other events offer dancing with Who are you?, Between the two of us, Where, and theater with Words of love of the Brown Eye Company.
The Pollen festival thus appears constant in its defense of artists and its desire to open contemporary creation to all ages.
“Pollen is taking a new turn. It is part of a dynamic of cooperation between municipalities”
Damien Stépho, vice-president of the Agglo du Pays de Dreux, delegate for culture, sees in this opening of culture and entertainment to the youngest, a great promise for the future of creation.
