LICE

Le laboratoire de recherche d'un corps extatique (LICE) est un projet de recherche-création qui a réuni dix acteurs-chercheurs, issus d’institutions professionnelles de la pratique théâtrale (conservatoires et écoles de théâtres) et d’institutions académiques (universités et écoles d’études théâtrales).

Encadrés par le collectif STRATES et ses artistes invités [Przemysław Błaszczak (Kokyu Studio, Institut Grotowski, Pologne) et Eleana Georgouli (Zero Point, Grèce), spécialisés dans le théâtre physique et le mouvement], le groupe a effectué une résidence de 18 jours avec un double objectif. D'abord, créer un langage commun à partir de mouvements improvisés et de rythmes corporels, et établir un processus d'exploration collective. Deuxièmement, observer et enregistrer ce processus à travers des images fixes, des vidéos, des sons et des textes personnels.

Les résultats de la recherche seront présentés prochainement sous la forme d'une installation audiovisuelle, couplée à des tables rondes de discussion.

IBSEN THE FINAL BID

THE PROJECT WAS AWARDED AN IBSEN SCOPE GRANT

In 2021, five actors are recruited to shoot a film about an imaginary coup d’etat during the 30’ in Paris. The film captures the bloody events of that day. With on-screen interviews, the Collective Strates seek to make sense of the extreme right logic and the role played by mainstream media in constructing social consciousness.

How the notion of democracy reflects today in Europe. Where do the successive social crises and states of emergency, whether political or health-related, lead us to? In what kind of regime are we moving towards? How does it affect life in the public space but also in the private space?

Have you ever been in love? Can you describe how it felt? Have you ever spied on your partner? Ηave you ever drank poison in heavy rain? Inspired by the bucolic text of the author S. Peresiadis, the collective revisits the dramatique tale between the two lovers, by focusing on the conflicting elements and escaping from naturalistic constraints.
