Back to Back Theatre

Prior to its first performances in 2027, Back to Back Theatre invites audiences to discover the different phases of work behind NEANDERTHAL—Histoire(s) du théâtre VIII by being present during its rehearsals. This ambitious new piece looks into the themes of extinction and cognition.

Filmed by means of a circular mechanism, RADIAL brings us a portrait of a community in motion. It is equally attentive to the collective whole as it is to the individualities of those that compose it. This in situ creation celebrates and brings together different artistic communities from the Paris region.

GANESH VERSUS THE THIRD REICH, a fable of a droll and moving kind, interweaves two narratives in order to prompt us to examine our perceptions of theatre and handicap. In it, the elephant-headed god travels through Nazi Germany, while the performers ask themselves questions about the pertinence of telling this story. 

At the crossroads between urban thriller, social satire and voyeuristic meditation, small metal objects plunges its performers into the perpetual movement of the public space. From within the heart of the crowd, the piece captures all the intensity of a personal drama.

Set to music by the Australian trio The Necks, FOOD COURT plunges a woman headlong into the all-too banal horrors of a humiliating experience in the public space. Featuring a cast of three female performers with learning difficulties, the piece transforms into an experience of an intense, unsettling kind.
