Disgraceland is a show in which four chambermaids deconstruct the iconic Elvis Presley through puppetry and platinism (the art of hijacking record players as musical instruments).

Minuscule et Grandiose invites you to a ceremony in a night garden. Through the hum of beehives and the songs of crickets, something chimerical lurks, almost imperceptible beneath the rustle. You cross the threshold, the vegetation has followed you and it's already another dimension, an inner garden.
In this universe, metamorphoses are woven where the plant and the architectural intertwine in changes of scale and nature. Between the living and the inanimate, between the tiny and the grandiose. Where insects and humans merge, where caterpillars become butterflies, where there's a promise of renewal.
Les veuves parallèles (Parallel Widows) paints a dreamlike portrait of a family in which the terrifying and the banal coexist. Through the story of Amanda, who remained mute for the last 18 years of her life, this work questions the transmission of memory between women of different generations. Sailing between the real and the imaginary, the dining room table becomes the stage through which the past resurfaces. To the sound of the violin, fragments of life laden with secrets are interwoven and superimposed on everyday gestures. An invitation to enter the elusive world of memory.
In her cozy little living room, an elderly woman takes us on a journey through the most important moments of her life. The objects that surround her daily life and populate her living room remind us of the woman she once was: a journey in which we follow the woman, the spouse, the mother, and what she has accomplished. A multitude of ingenious scenic devices and objects are used to take the spectator on a touching journey back in time, through a voice and a body that are quivering, delicate and fragile. A universe both touching and magical
An ode to life, wisdom and women.

Canadian author David Baudemont, with "Orange au pays des Angles", is the winner of the call for French-language puppet texts Autre chose est possible, launched by Les Enfants Sauvages, at FMTM 2021. This creation is the conclusion of an incredible collective adventure, which brought together 34 authors, 42 readers, 12 directors, 36 actors and hundreds of spectators...
David Baudemont's text for the general public is an ode to difference, with a strong emphasis on the poetry of mathematics. It questions the notion of "rules": must they always be respected? Sometimes to the point of absurdity? Do rules deprive us of our singularity? In the play, Orange and Triangle Rectangle are pitted against each other... How can they become friends?
David Baudemont's message is absolutely universal, and more necessary than ever: difference is richness...
... Perhaps it's enough...
... to round off the angles...?

Incarnations transitoires is a research and creation project underway since autumn 2021. On the one hand, it revolves around the desire to explore the dramaturgical potential of the theater of matter, favoring large volumes of raw materials. On the other hand, it is based on the desire to put the body in motion in relation to these materials, which come to life and transform. The idea is to transpose and externalize fleeting but invasive inner states into moving masses that interact with the body in ways that are at times abstract, poetic and playful.
