One versus One

One versus One creation 2021 - live music version

SHOW

Duration 50min – created for young audiences aged 6 and over

There are two of them, side by side, barely separated, but they can’t see each other. Space is limited. It’s as if they’re trapped. Freely inspired by the characters of Orpheus and Eurydice, Raphaëlle Boitel challenges the myth in a physical, playful and surreal way. She questions the place of women, stereotypes and codes distilled by a patriarchal society. In a resolutely tragicomic tone, it’s a way of telling a different story to children and young people, the place of some, of others, close to each other, facing each other, evoking the quest for self, emancipation, without looking back!

In 2021, a live version of Un contre Un was created, performed by a string quartet founded specifically for this project (violins, cello, double bass). A project for 2 performers, with original music, Un contre Un is a form for small stages that encourages local projects.
