Marceline ou Notre-Dame-Des-Pleurs

Marceline ou Notre-Dame-Des-Pleurs is a solo show that blends theatre and dance, presented at Théâtre Le Karbone in Lyon. It is aimed at audiences curious about forms in which dramatic performance and movement answer each other.

Marceline ou Notre-Dame-Des-Pleurs is presented as a solo piece, a one-person show that combines theatre and dance. The production rests on a single performer on stage, and on a work in which speech and bodily movement follow one another or intertwine.

In the auditorium, audiences can expect a piece that does not confine itself to classical storytelling: the body holds as important a place as the text. The register is that of contemporary stage creation, without spectacular effects, with close attention paid to the presence of the sole performer on stage.

The show is aimed at audiences open to hybrid forms, who enjoy seeing one performer explore several languages. It is staged at Théâtre Le Karbone, a Lyon venue dedicated to theatre and dance shows, whose programme supports this kind of creation.
