Description
A caricature of the governance of the powerful, Ubu Roi tells the story of Father Ubu's rise to power.
Three puppet-actors, tree-trunk actors, recreate the epic in their performance machine,
a small, living "telecinematograph," summoning a monstrous bestiary of tyrants, terrifying props, palaces, caves, and a blend of power and violence.
At the crossroads of clowning, puppetry, object theatre, and television, this show is a playful and wonderfully popular UFO, reconciling novices, theatre and literature lovers, young and old, skeptics, film buffs, and television addicts.
A form that is both contemporary and timeless, it resonates with its inventiveness, its humor, but above all, its close connection to the violence of current events.
