This anthropologist specialising in the peoples of the Far North survived a bear attack in the mountains of Kamchatka.
Croire aux fauves (to be read!) tells the story of a wound and a reconstruction, and questions the animal part that lies dormant in us all. Adapted for the stage by Les Arts Oseurs, this story is an invitation to dare to get closer to the ‘wild’ world for a moment by leaving the human world behind, and to question the (porous) boundaries between the two. In the silence of an evening, on the edge of a wood, an encounter
awaits you. This nocturnal experience might just take you beyond the visible…
For 23 years, Les Arts Oseurs have been creating shows that bear witness to the world. And if words are at the heart of the encounter, so too is the multiplicity
artistic languages. Theatre, visual arts, music and dance are all brought together to tackle human, burning and necessary issues. The encounter with the audience is at the heart of the company’s preoccupations, both in the content of its shows and in the way it presents them. It’s a way for the company to engage in necessary aesthetic and political reflection
On the place of theatre in the city. Since 2012, she has worked mainly in public spaces. Each show is a creation about a human, burning, necessary subject. The notion of bearing witness is at the heart of each project. “A story catches us and haunts us and we try to amplify its echo in the face of the world.”
