Press coverage
A full house
Captivated from the very first minutes, the children enjoyed this plunge into the fantastic and magical daily life of a Rosie Rose who is as surprising as she is talented.
It was a packed house, overwhelmed by the poetry, the charm and the magic of a show that, from the very first minutes, or the very first notes for that matter, draws the audience into an everyday life tinged with fairy tales and fantasy.
The children were not mistaken: receptive from the start, they even came to the rescue of Rosie Rose who was disturbed in her reading by a multitude of little intrusions. Here and there a mouse stealing cheese, flowers swaying to the music, disturbing shadows. Admiring her prowess as an improvised juggler.
In short, a real little moment of happiness, rewarded as it should be by hearty laughter.
La Montagne - 2013
Rosie Rose is like Sarah Kay meets Betty Boop, in a cosy, flower-filled interior. Rosie Rose, alias Karen Bourre, is full of mischief and mischief-making, a kind of gently melancholy clown. A daily life full of gentle madness, disturbed by the untimely passage of cheese-snatching mice - little mice cobbled together by the show's behind-the-scenes man, Julien Lanaud.
The audience is plunged into the world of American cartoons. There's a lot of tinkering and tinkering in this show, which is full of deceptively spectacular but terribly effective effects. [...]. A beautiful moment of humour and feminine lightness.
Le Bien Public - 2012
Rosie Rose conquered the theatre
Rosie Rose's little home, bathed in jazz music performed by Rose Murphy, is inhabited by juggler Karen Bourre and above all by the radiance she exudes. [...]Magic, but not just any kind of magic. Not the kind of pretence that needs tricks. With Karen and Julien, it's a magic that takes you to a world where mice are accomplices, where drama is born in light or music, where a patchwork stuffed deer sings, where a storybook is suddenly held by the six hands of the reader. And then there's the magic of juggling and hula-hooping, which are easy to see and for which failure is almost reassuringly human.
Hundreds of children from Beaune have enjoyed this show by Compagnie Opopop and have certainly lived out their Rosie Rose dreams.

Rosie Rose enchants her young audience
[...] The world of Rosie Rose enchanted the young audience
Le journal du Centre - 2013
A little mischievous, a lot of magic and a passionate juggler, Karen Bourre from the Opopop company welcomed a full house on Saturday for a surrealist show full of humour for young audiences. Welcome to 'Rosie Rose'.
[It's funny, poetic and magical. The applause increases. At Rosie Rose's, we'd love to stay.
