La Légende du Chevalier Vert

With its new musical, Rêves de Poche invites you to King Arthur’s court to experience an epic adventure, where proving one’s worth becomes a true quest for self-discovery. A show that is at once funny, touching, and profound, blending ancient melodies, pop songs, and original compositions with sets and costumes inspired by medieval illuminations. Adapted from the medieval novel *The Greene Knight*, this production reimagines the virtues of chivalry and explores their meaning today. Dive into the heart of the legend! At King Arthur’s Court, the most famous knights—Perceval, Yvain, Tristan, Galahad, Lancelot—spend their time boasting of their exploits and heroic virtues. Galaad is brave, Tristan is charismatic, Yvain is devoted, Lancelot is loyal… and Gauvain? With no feats of arms to his name, clumsy and hesitant, Gauvain stumbles, doubts, questions, and often becomes the laughingstock of everyone.But when a mysterious Green Knight appears to issue a challenge, no one dares to step forward… except Gauvain. Thus begins a true rite of passage for him. A hero in spite of himself, Gauvain is just like us: imperfect, sincere, vulnerable. His journey sheds light on the cracks hidden behind idealized virtues—narcissistic generosity, blind courage, ambiguous loyalty, and superficial courtesy. The show reveals, with humor and depth, the limitations and contradictions of these ideals.
