Théatre à Bout Portant

And if everything that is taken for granted became inadequate.
And if everything that is set like clockwork was to fail.
When life becomes constraints, freedom, it, becomes urgent.
A woman, too much rooted, in a straitjacket, set too clockwork-like. A life, a routine, nothing more common, more banal, gradually becomes an ordeal for the one facing the impossible: do like every day. Through an everyday life that exponentially goes out of control, we discover a woman with aborted dreams, with sensitive desires and who now faces the unbearable perpetual failure. As the space narrows, and the time speeds up, she, becomes less and less functional. And more and more human.
And if the most basic we had, which is ourselves, became the cause of our lack and derailing.
Hit by duty, by obligation, by productivity… and trying to prevail.
When the pace becomes frantic, only remains the wall.
Rush at it.
Head first.

And if that was not life.

“Never exaggerate, it is not necessary due to the effectiveness of the staging that she signed, Vicky Côté takes the viewer to the breaking point. She surprised by the inventiveness of the decor, fun at times and especially beneficial causes a reflection in which everyone has the opportunity to apply its colors.”
