CHITA PROJECT + THÉÂTRE FILLE UNIQUE

Shared Bill

1. The floor collapses, the music bends, images sweat, and bodies swell until the stage bursts open. Here you find La-chose-en-soi. This “thing-in-itself” could be a boxing ring, a playground, a basement, a gas station in the middle of nowhere. What is space made of? What are we made of? Bodies overflow with questions, with desires: to play, to mingle with that of another; a thirst for intimacy. In a DIY scenography made from everyday objects, the two performers create a space for themselves, the materialization of their internal landscape. The audience is invited to get lost in the manoeuvres and experiments of La chose-en-soi.

2. Two entities float and wander in a space that may resemble paradise, but not quite. One has just arrived, the other has been there for who knows how long. In this vast and senseless space, one can find solace or desire to escape. The other might be the solution, comfort, but can quickly become an obstacle, or even the enemy.
