Franco Dragone, Luc PETIT, the Regional Cultural Center of the Center and the City of La Louvière have joined forces to offer the citizens of Louviérois an astonishing urban spectacle mixing, in a great burst of generosity, professional and amateur artists, music and artiOces, parades and disguises.
The designers of the show have, for the occasion, created the symbolic character of Sancho, a giant puppet representing the collective imagination and social commitment of a mixed population.
The idea was to create a dreamlike show which gives people another image than the one they have of their daily world and above all to make them participate fully in this ritual of a new kind, this quest for utopia full of energy and hope to better prepare for the future.
In 2002 and 2006, La Louvière found its hero, Sancho, who, once again,
took down the moon from the top of the Church. The third edition benefited from the extraordinary participation of singer and musician Catherine Lara and several internationally renowned street theater companies, without forgetting many young volunteers from the region.
