Destiny
Destiny is a visual show, between the plastic arts and puppetry.
Files & Professional Space
A narrow plank hanging in mid-air.
People make their way across it, running towards the moon, the object of their desire. But the path is littered with dangers, and our people are fragile.
Silhouettes shining in the void, individuals grappling with their desire for the absolute, handled with four hands by two demiurges amused by this cruel world.

In the press
A cabin built in the middle of the forest becomes a puppet stage for the quest for the inaccessible star by the light of paper lanterns. (...) Dolls which could have been crafted by Giacometti follow one after the other, get bogged down, then all of a sudden prevail and send the night back to its dark neighbourhoods...
Nothing but vain attempts, fall after fall... Everything always has to be begun again, our destiny resembles that of Sisyphus. But hush! This show cannot be told. It is a delight to receive on our retinas this poetry rush imagined and remarkably “manipulated” by Karine Birgé and Marie Delhaye
