La Boutique des Rêves
Laurenz is a discreet office worker. One evening, he takes a detour on his way home and pushes open the door of a strange shop. The salesman offers him to try three dreams, which will change his life.
Equipped with headphones, the audience members are placed "in the ears" of Laurenz. Built live by the 3 performers, the dreams overturn the office space, transforming it into a high-speed train, a racing car, a rocket, a boat... "Le Petit Vertige", an instrument designed by luthier Léo Maurel, operates a shift between worlds. The binaural recordings and live creation make the audience, both parents and children, oscillate on the threshold of a porous border between theatre and music, dream and reality.
Based on the short story and radio play by Ingeborg Bachmann Ein Geschäft Mit Träumen, translated by Magali Jourdan and Mathilde Sobottke.
