Marie Barbottin, Catherine Verlaguet
THE WATER ROOM • French première
DANCE, SPOKEN WORD AND SIGN LANGUAGE TELL THE TALE OF A GIRL BORN IN A BATHTUB.
A girl or a boy? That is not the relevant question. Catherine Verlaguet, author of children’s books, has written a text/score to accompany the living breath of a dancer and her tandem who interprets in sign language. The modern-day fable set around an old-fashioned bathtub takes the audience on a journey with the presence of bodies in a universe where no one has ever heard of gender stereotypes. Marie Barbottin moves from poetic images to great female punk voices, presenting her message of commitment as a woman, a mother and an artist.
