Foutue bergerie

FURTHER AFIELD

Created by Pierre Guillois, Foutue bergerie is a mordant, comic fable set on a farm at the city’s edge where grieving humans share the stage with blunt, philosophising animals. A peasant family struggles with the loss of a son while sheep speak with sharp tongues, a young intern stands out among hardened characters and a journalist confronts the chemical group linked to the tragedy. Performers shift roles and give voice to grieving sheep in an absurd, farcical rural drama.

In French.
