Cabots mordus

Description

« One day someone will ring our doorbell, someone will say: ‘Come on, friends, we’re waiting for you. On stage!’ and the night of indifference will be broken. »
Victor, Scene 4
Can we keep the flame alive amidst the tumult of the world?
With his incisive writing, Jean-Marie Piemme states realities that are as funny in their formulation as they are worrying in their consequences. In Cabots mordus, he holds up a mirror to the survival of artistic desire in the face of disillusionment, in a grand gesture of joyful irreverence to remind the world not to forget its artists.
Obsessed with themselves, as battered and showy as they are irresistible, two actor brothers resist as best they can in a society where it is becoming increasingly difficult to exist. Louis, the elder, engages with great texts, from Shakespeare to Musset; the younger, Victor, performs nude, painted blue. In their small daily theater, they share an obsession with words, humor, and an unwavering faith in art. Brothers on stage and in hardship, pathetic and funny, unbearable and moving, between bursts of laughter, petty scores settling, and shattered dreams, these two magnificent clowns engage in verbal and existential jousts, transforming their shipwreck into a theatrical fireworks display.
Funny, cruel, absurd, and deeply touching, Cabots mordus is a passionate love declaration to live art, its madness, fragility, and its irreducible necessity.
