Métamorphose – Chapitre 1 : P. et B.

Performances

Théâtre du Loup

Directed as an in situ promenade, this performance follows two protagonists, P. and B., through the city’s hidden seams. B. conspires to seed an exuberant vegetal uprising, mastering invasive plants to unsettle urban order. P. slips into the city’s blind spots, picking locks and slipping through barriers to reveal alternative ways of inhabiting public space. The show mixes physical theatre, poetic staging and ecological imagination to explore rewilding, intimacy and civic subversion.

Mariés au premier ringard

Uptown

Mariés au premier ringard is a sharp, character-driven theatrical comedy that dissects the absurdities of modern relationships with warmth and irony. The staging favors close ensemble interaction, a lean scenography and precise lighting that underline shifting loyalties and comic misunderstandings. Moments of tenderness puncture the satire, inviting reflection on intimacy, identity and the small rituals of coupling. It balances humour and poignancy to produce a lively theatrical pulse.
