Description
Emmanuel Demarcy-Mota and his artistic team question the universe of Ionesco.

The result of research and improvisation, Ionesco suite is a navigation through the heart of Eugène Ionesco's most striking obsessions: the difficulty of being, the manifestation of power and domination (emotional or intellectual), the arbitrariness of language and the fundamental impossibility of communication. An ode to the violence of his humour that goes back to the origins, plunging into the heart of the texts that opened the roads to the Absurd. The Bald Soprano and The Lesson but also others, largely unknown, such as Jack, or The Submission or Frenzy for Two, or More... In the same spirit of fluid, sharp and joking play, in complicity with the audience. A waltz of surprises and reunions, proof that Ionesco has lost none of his vitality.

Press excerpts
Télérama

Irresistible actors and an exhilarating show !


Le Monde

A pleasing result: Ionesco leaves his clothes as a master of the absurd and becomes the revealer of fears and fantasies.


Le Figaroscope

Ionesco is great, deep, close and speaks to us in the most intimate way.
