Story by Christiane Duchesne and Jérôme Minière Illustrated by Marianne Ferrer Performances by Bruno Marcil, Ariane Moffatt, Salomé Leclerc, Frannie Holder and Michel Rivard
An imaginative musical tale, comprised of a narrated story interspersed with original and traditional French songs, follows four inseperable friends who loved to play together. The members of the Bébert gang, as they were known, never ever got bored with each other… except for the time when it rained for four straight weeks! That’s when they decided to repair an old boat and head for dryer lands, a sunny place atop the Blue Mountain. The journey to the faraway unknown destination wouldn’t be easy, but with a little help from newly made animal friends, the gang would finally make it to the summit, the best place in the whole world to have a picnic!
