Les Surpeuplées

Terreurs
Borrowing from magical realism, Terreurs plunges us into the strange, everyday world of a woman who tries to fit in, to hold on, to succeed. In a fragile balance, she tries to forget the hostile figures that inhabit her nights.

Sayeh Sirvani – France

“L’Ivresse des profondeurs”
Deep-sea drunkenness is a disorder that can affect any diver when descending with tanks. Euphoria, confusion, blurred vision, loss of consciousness, anxiety, hallucinations… The capacity of judgement is reduced, one forgets; one does not make the right choices in time, putting one’s life in mortal danger. Here the intoxication is that of diving into a world of escapes, of realities that topple over; of words that one cannot pronounce or others that one repeats to reassure oneself.

“Personne n’a le droit de traîner sans armes sur un champ de bataille”
Matéi Visniec, with his careful, laconic and tight writing, never ceases to denounce the stupidity of men and the ravages of war in his texts, particularly in this play which mixes reality and fantasy, things seen and things imagined.

Cie Atipik – France

“Les Explorateurs”
Theatrical play, shadow theatre and the projection of photographic images are combined to offer young audiences a reverie around nature as a refuge and a place of learning. Are we all budding explorers?

A sublime marriage of a visual artist and a dancer, this creation by Marine Mane echoes the career of Michel Nedjar, this extraordinary artist who never stops turning forms upside down.

Cie Yôkaï – France

“Réveil invisible”
The Yôkaï Company engages in experiments questioning the frontier between the human and the creature, with the share of metamorphosis and inexplicability that this entails.

Cie Za ! – France

“À ta place”
Puppetry and live drawing address the question of places taken and/or to be taken, attributed and lost. Having a place to exist, succeeding in having a good place, not feeling in one’s place, losing one’s place…
