Conceived, written and performed by Adrien Barazzone, La politique du pire stages a single actor embodying a tumultuous municipal council debating a contemporary artwork replacing a statue. With mordant energy he inhabits a civic body and offers a sharp, jubilant mirror on public life, playing the paradox of solitary performance versus republican dialogue. Scenography: Hélène Bessero-Belti and Tom Richtarch; costumes: Maria Muscalu; sound: Fernando de Miguel; lighting: Vincent Scalbert; collaborators: Barbara Schlittler, Christian Geffroy Schlittler; consultant: Nils‑A. Sambuc. Second instalment of the Trilogie des systèmes, begun with Toute intention de nuire (2024); final part due spring 2027.
In French.
