The Mirror
Theatre
Description
Description
We are in France, 1638. A young countess representing French nobility awaits a visit by a Chinese princess. She wants this meeting to represent her country and strengthen the ties of friendship and trust between the two countries that have been broken by their fathers’ past mistakes.
Four actor-acrobat-singers, two Chinese and two French, bring us into an original story with successive scenes that reflect the differences that bring us closer. A speaking mirror (a video screen) lunges us into the heart of the plot and reveals reflections of our true nature. Through interactive imagery and slam, The Mirror inverts the order of time, combining Italian and Chinese traditions and culture to create a new modern from. Does the Monkey King lay dormant within Arlequin?
