Peau d'Âne

Le conte de Peau d'âne est difficile à croire. Mais, tant que dans le monde on aura des enfants, Des mères et des mères-grands, On en gardera la mémoire. À sa mort, la reine a fait promettre au roi de n'épouser que plus belle qu'elle. Mais, de tout le royaume, il n'en est qu'une qui puisse y prétendre : leur propre fille ! Un conte quelque peu inquiétant de Perrault avec une mise en scène sonore imaginée par André-Serre Milan où se mêlent création contemporaine (basse et guitare électrique de Marco Bellaïche) et instruments classiques (clavecin de Mario Raskin), ainsi qu'un point de vue original sur les voix (passages chantés).

Peau d'âne de Charles Perrault

Mourante, une reine se fait promettre par le roi de ne prendre pour nouvelle épouse qu'une femme plus belle qu'elle. Mais la seule personne capable de rivaliser avec sa beauté n'est autre que sa propre fille, et le roi lui fait sa demande. Pour échapper à cette union, la princesse demande à son père, pour sa dot, des robes irréalisables, mais il parvient toujours à les lui offrir... Ce conte est interprété par Fabienne Prost, pour la plus grande joie des petits et des grands. Elle lui demande alors de sacrifier son âne qui produit des écus d'or en guise de crottin, son plus précieux trésor, et le roi s'exécute. La princesse s'enfuit alors du château, revêtue de la peau de l'âne. Elle emporte avec elle sa toilette et ses plus belles robes. Le prince d'un autre royaume, où s'est installée Peau d'âne comme servante, la voit, mais il ne la reconnaît pas sans ses tenues de princesse. Il demande alors que Peau d'âne lui fasse un gâteau. En faisant la galette, elle laisse tomber sa bague dans la pâte. Le prince demande immédiatement que toutes les femmes et demoiselles du pays, de la plus noble à la plus humble, viennent essayer la bague. Aucune ne peut passer cette dernière. Enfin, on fait venir Peau d'âne. Son doigt entre dans la bague et le prince peut alors l'épouser.
