A SEQUEL TO THE PREVIOUS SHOW OR A SEPIA-TONED DREAM FUGUE, THE BEST OF THE BEST OF IGOR AND LILY.
“A sequel ahead”: this is how Igor and Lily of Théâtre Dromesko described this play subtitled Après-demain, demain sera hier (The Day After Tomorrow, Tomorrow Will Be Yesterday) which begins where their previous play Le Jour du grand jour ends. Here, we see fleeting sequences take place, something like floating fragments in the inexorable course of a life. Here, through a fairyland of dreamlike tableaus, we encounter Charles the marabou and other familiar animals, but also a little person with fragile legs and Death as a torero sharpening his scythe. In short: an entire rough and tumble world carried by the music in a toppling movement both inebriated and irresistible. Hugues Le Tanneur
More than ever before, Igor and Lily celebrate life that is stronger than death through strikingly beautiful images and visions. La Croix
As gracefully as ever, Le Dur Désir de durer takes on the madness of a world on course toward its inexorable decline. Libération
The Dromeskos have every right to borrow their title from Eluard. For their circus without acrobats has the necessary power and poetry. Sceneweb
