After the listening, the kids will be guided through a series of educational and playful activities by Chloé Despax.

‘Et si Ganda s’était sauvé’ (What if Ganda had escaped?) is a fictional story based on the (real) passage of Ganda, an Indian rhinoceros, to the island of If in 1516. Based on this surprising historical fact and the rhinoceros’s forced journey, a group of local children and the artists Chloé Despax and Sarah Cheveau imagined that Ganda cut the rope, escaped and discovered the creeks of Marseilles and their inhabitants: sea cucumbers, jellyfish, squid, not forgetting the famous gabions.
