les idées grises
2016
Les Idées Grises is a destructive and pleasurable quest, a search for absolute freedom, an abandonment of the conventional, a praise of the incongruous. “It’s an opportunity for us to destroy our Cartesian thoughts & let ourselves wander towards the irrational. Let’s accept the absurd, forget reason & laugh at logic”.
The show has been performed over a hundred times in France and abroad.
The short form was presented in the IN of the 2016 Avignon Festival (as part of the XS festival supported by the Théâtre National Wallonie-Bruxelles).
This show is no longer on tour.
