Elle et Lui

Presented by La Compagnie de L'ElanCréer. To create. To love. To destroy. And to start again.

Yesterday, today, and certainly tomorrow… There are stories that transcend centuries without losing their power because they speak less of an era than of passion that becomes dizzying, of a force capable of elevating to genius as well as plunging into the abyss.

Behind the narrative inspired by the relationship between George Sand and Alfred de Musset, there is the desire to make heard what continues to resonate within us: the desire to be loved and to possess, the difficulty of truly meeting, the coexistence of excess and frustration, and what remains when love refuses to disappear… This love that nourishes art and in which creation becomes a battlefield, in a dance where every embrace already bears the mark of death.

This show questions what remains when two geniuses love each other too intensely to live together and too deeply to truly leave each other… Directed by: Élise Rouby. With: Théo Metalli, Élise Rouby. Assistant(s): Bruna Bahiana. Lighting: Alexandre de Pardailhan.
