THEATER

Immortals - The Nest (Part. 1)

Adhok Company

19, 21 et 23 Juillet - Lycée Jacques Decour

The Adhok company uses public space to develop a poetic language reminiscent of tanztheater, combining thrills and hearty laughter. For the 2017 edition of Festival Paris l'été, it offers four moving and staunchly optimistic performances: two about youth, and two about old age.

 

IMMORTALS

What does it mean to be young nowadays? These nine people between the ages of 18 and 30 find themselves in a transitional period between childhood and adulthood. How do you navigate a world where people tell you that your life is ahead of you when you can't see the big picture? Where they tell you that anything is possible when everything seems difficult? A free party runs out of control, and suddenly their stories flash before our eyes: their first steps out of the nest, the parties, the people they meet, the discovery of the self and of others... Two moving, fun-packed performances which illustrate these questions in order to try and make sense of them and clear the horizon.

They have only just stuck their heads out of the nest, 10 feet up, contemplating the full extent of the world. Their wings are still frail. But what happens when the fledgelings leave the nest? As they prepare to dive into the void, who knows what's going to happen on the ground?
