Four individuals show up in a theatre. Sometimes fearful, sometimes amused, they stroll around like tourists, playing awkwardly and testing the boundaries of acceptable behaviour. Impulses are released and rules are broken as the empty space is gradually transformed into a universe overflowing with possibilities.
By creating a strange and playful laboratory for life, Alix Dufresne and Étienne Lepage shake up both social and theatrical conventions in this biting comedy adventure.
"The performers are mind-blowing with truth. The surprises are constant and so is the escalation." - Theatricalities
"These four 'innocents' cultivate burlesque catastrophe, resigned exuberance, absolute shamelessness [...] A vertiginous and often hilarious experience" - The point
