Un p’tit caillou dans la chaussure

Pascal Chenu brings a witty, music-rich solo show devised with Annik von Kaenel, blending chansons, texts and playful satire inspired by Jacques Prévert, Francis Blanche and Bénédict Gampert. Chenu’s original compositions and piano frame a warm, theatrical concert where he is joined by longtime collaborators Véronique Mattana and Sophie Solo. The staging mixes song, dance and sharply comic asides to create an intimate, uplifting evening that oscillates between tenderness and caustic humour.

Directed by Françoise Courvoisier, this production of Anton Chekhov’s Oncle Vania — translated by Arthur Adamov — assembles a committed ensemble (Vincent Bonillo, Pierre Dubey, Bérangère Mastrangelo, Patricia Mollet-Mercier, Clarisse Morizot, Pierre Omer, Juliana Samarine, Edmond Vuilloud) to explore love, the passage of time and illusions lost. The staging, created with scenographer Gilbert Maire and painter André Kasper, uses Rinaldo Del Boca’s lighting, Pierre Omer’s music and Nicolas Le Roy’s sound to evoke both the comedy and the terrifying humanity of Chekhov.
