COMING SOON
Au nom du père, du fils
et de Jackie Chan
This summer, "Au nom du Père, du Fils, et de Jackie Chan", which was first performed at Les Rencontres de Theizé - Théâtre en Pierres Dorées (69), at the F.A.T. Festival in Taulignan and at several residencies in Paris, will premiere at the Festival Off Avignon 2024 at Théâtre Artéphile. Festival in Taulignan and several residency outings in Paris, will premiere at the Festival Off Avignon 2024 at the Théâtre Artéphile (performed daily at 4:25pm, from July 1 to 21).
Arthur, brought up in a highly atypical family, was on the brink of collapse when an encounter in the video department of the hypermarket saved him. Who was it ? Jackie Chan.
Reassuring, resourceful and funny, the martial arts star becomes a kind of spiritual father for Arthur, teaching him to stop bearing his parents' suffering in silence.
Accompanied by a noisemaker/musician, Matthias Fortune juggles a cast of some twenty characters, all of whom are truly zany yet very real. This unlikely family portrait is an invitation to father-son reconciliation and a tribute to kung-fu cinema.
Women and Vovinam Việt Võ Đạo
For several years, Anne-Sophie and Matthias have been exploring Southeast Asia with the dream of one day working there.
With their project "Femmes et Vovinam Việt Võ Đạo", they share the story of their encounter with Danièle Thiều Thị Tân, master of Việt Võ Đạo, historian and former inmate of the Poulo Condor prison during the Vietnam War. With this extraordinary encounter, Matthias and Anne-Sophie continue their research into martial arts and the body as a vector of emancipation and resilience. After this first stage of creation in Ho Chi Minh City, the show will continue its journey in France over the coming season.
Ingmar et Grenadine
Last November, the company organized the first exploration and creation residency for its future show for young audiences: "Ingmar et Grenadine".
This show, written and directed by Anne-Sophie Liban, explores the rich themes of storytelling from a new angle, tackling the subject of ordinary educational violence and child emancipation. Currently seeking partners, the show is scheduled for the 2025/26 season.
