Mordre by Giulia Dussolier

It's the story of a woman who thinks she's a dog. Author, social sciences graduate, dancer and actress, Giulia Dussollier brings a striking investigation to the stage: what do we learn about our own mechanisms by slipping into the skin of a dog? In 2022, Giulia Dussollier wrote MORDRE., a poetic and social investigation into what companion dogs awaken in us. Today, she embodies it. Questioning our relationship with other living species, our conditioning and our need for attachment, she extends this research into her body. On stage, surrounded by a crack team in sound, lighting and canine training, the performer deploys the mechanisms of a unique physicality. At the heart of the piece are the physical drive of clicker-training, an education method using sound, and the atmosphere of “the zone”, a state of hypervigilance and animal listening. A carnal and liberating invitation to shake up our hierarchies.
