I'm so Excited!
Event
All of this is about the end of a relationship, the destruction of two bodies that love each other or that used to love or enjoyed the idea of loving each other, set in a party setting, on the birthday of one of the performers, which is also a theatre rehearsal. In a constant game of perversion and provocation - sometimes almost childish, a motionless body and body 2 (as if mirror figures of Hippolytus and Phaedra) allow themselves to be pieces of a game that is not entirely decipherable, in order to reach a settling of scores. This "fight" goes to a place of revenge, where one of the bodies will have to forget and (self)destroy completely, in order to achieve a certain purification and forgiveness.
This purification is the state we are looking for: the search for an almost dependent and total love - this total surrender being an impossible condition speaking of us humans, and of individual machines, with their sole and own wills and desires.
I intend, from this performance, to start a series of duets, in which I will work every year, in an atmosphere of intimacy, with an (female) performer, based on more or less specific guidelines, with the only condition of the team being only composed of me and that other person. Basically, the creation of a theatrical universe that works only for two.
