Elsa Couvreur brings “Let’s Start Again” to the Parfumerie, a dance performance where the soloist endlessly repeats a choreographic phrase, guided by new instructions each time. This solo combines dance with humor, challenging audience expectations of art.
Les Gros patinet bien is a wildly inventive comedy featuring just two performers and 150 cardboard boxes. The show follows a plump, Shakespearean-style storyteller who narrates a chaotic European escape tale while remaining seated, and his hyperactive, silent sidekick who acts out the entire journey around him. With roller skates, scooters, planes, and even a mule, the duo creates a hilarious, high-energy performance full of physical comedy, absurdity, and imagination. This clever mix of stillness and motion earned the show the 2022 Molière Prize for Best Public Theatre.
