L’amour, la schlague et cætera

Prieur de la Marne in residence at Césaré
for his new project presented at the Philharmonie de Paris

An expert in the art of "cinémix", the unclassifiable Prieur de la Marne orchestrates a sultry hybrid performance that cleverly couples very moist music, erotic photos, excerpts from amateur Super 8 films, and texts read by several guests.

With L'Amour, la Schlague et Cætera, Prieur de la Marne refines his narrative approach with his beloved guests.
Kate Moran is an actress and performer from Boston. She has notably worked with Bob Wilson, Peter Greenaway, Rebecca Zlotowski, and Hélène Frappat. For L'Amour, la Schlague et Cætera, Kate will whisper in the viewer's ear Come closer against a backdrop of bodies brushing under summer sheets. She will evoke all the stakes of the second time... The first of the Thousand and One Nights?

Charlie Perillat is a born front woman. Charlie loves total art. A jack-of-all-trades, she writes and films her stories. She narrates this mundane everyday life, both day and night, the "wobbly narrative" of a youth dreaming their life through social media statuses. In the age of fake news and system failures, Charlie wants to be free. Among other singers in the group Tentative, she is also a performer of rare audacity. She will make the sound of bed bars echo against the damp wall of the green room...

Schérazade is a singer with a voice from the floor above, who has chosen to create a certain French pop that would cross paths with great American artisans. Exquisite Asylum, her debut album, is Françoise Hardy sitting on the shoulders of Jacno. On one side, curls of smoke travel in the room, on the other, a neo-Rohmerian atmosphere welcoming questions and combinations. Schérazade will tell of Love with many, focusing on a single question... Is it good for the heart?

As for the mysterious presence of the artist Petites Luxures, it is a well-kept secret, in a hat box hidden in a corner of the green room.
