Le Corps de Claudine

Directed by Fabrice Gorgerat, Le Corps de Claudine stages a poetic, metaphorical exploration of a body marked by Parkinson’s disease and ageing. On a reduced domestic set, performers Fiamma Camesi, Shannon Granger and Christophe Jaquet inhabit a fragile, constrained body—between implants, heavy medication and memory—evoking intimacy, time’s erosion and the complex love between mother and son. The piece blends physical theatre and lyric imagery to probe vulnerability, care and the persistence of tenderness.

In French.
