L'Évenement

Description

A bread oven catches fire. At first glance, this may seem like a trivial matter. However, in this play, this incident becomes the starting point for a story that is as strange as it is fascinating. From this event, three characters attempt to tell what happened. But each has their own version, their own memories and interpretations. The narratives overlap, contradict each other, and sometimes complement one another. And it is here that the magic unfolds. Perched on rocks, with closed eyes and in precarious balance, the performers compose an astonishing linguistic mechanism. The voices intertwine with impressive precision, forming a kind of reinterpreted ancient chorus – witty, quirky, and decidedly contemporary. Gradually, the narrative seems to come to life on its own, like a being made of words, rhythms, and contradictions. An unexpected theatrical work, where the form becomes as captivating as the story it tells.
