HISTOIRE(S) DU THÉÂTRE V: HOW GOES THE WORLD

In How Goes the World, four performers come and go in a confused succession of roles, costumes, set changes and lighting effects. Butlers, messengers, soldiers, doctors, lovers, murderers, dancers, drunkards and innocents: all are present, along with queens and kings in ripped robes, lamenting their fate in the fake snow that flutters down somewhere between the bookcase, the coffee table, the dead tree and the ironing board. A storm, outside. A war in the distance. The sound of applause.
