Written, directed and performed by Adrien Buensod and Maxence Marmy, Le vol des mouettes is an absurd tragicomedy about isolation and the ritualisation of bureaucracy. Two government agents stranded on a remote island decode confidential messages as routine and procedure acquire surreal weight. Actor director Martine Corthésy shapes the performers’ delicate balance between precision and bewilderment; Lam Do sculpts the world with spare lighting and technical design. The piece unfolds with dark humour and lingering unease, attentive to timing and silence.
