Sur la route

Lorsque Œdipe prend la route, c’est pour tenter, après la tragédie, de reprendre différemment le fil de sa vie, de retrouver l’équilibre après qu’il s’est rompu.

When Oedipus takes to the road, it is to attempt, after the tragedy, to pick up the threads of his life differently, to restore the balance that has been broken. The limpid, rebellious and illuminating Antigone is a necessary part of this journey. One that they will understand they can only undertake together. Sur la route… is a dialogue of bodies between a wounded man and a woman walking a tightrope. The duo they create is a choreography of balance. It is also for Antoine Rigot, a tightrope walker and victim of an accident in May 2000, a new step in the re-invention of his art. In this approach, Sur la route… talks to us of the tightrope in an infinitely personal manner, which goes far beyond an exercise in virtuosity.
