Éline Schumacher, based on William Shakespeare
Théâtre | Création
Du festive and generous theater!
You go to a party, you fight, you fall in love, you climb to her balcony, you make love, your best friend is killed, you take revenge, you have to flee, you find your love, she is dead, you kill yourself, she wasn’t really dead, you were, so she dies, too bad. But iconic.
Some texts go beyond theater to become a passion. We don’t perform them anymore, we celebrate them. Éline Schumacher thus transforms Shakespeare’s masterpiece into an explosive celebration, a pretext for the emergence of a new folklore.
Redécouvrir Roméo and Juliet through this show with a deliberately inverted title is a way to continue loving theater today. The work, over 400 years old, appears here as a unifying common good, a collective rite shared between artists and spectators.
The staging openly honors the transmission of a very old, raw theatrical know-how. Between scenes that are repeated and reinvented, live music, and a complicit audience, the play unfolds with fanfare. The performance furiously takes the form of an immersive party where the hall and the stage vibrate together to glorify love.
