''A leurs place les choses'' ''everything in its right place''. Is a scream aiming at disturbing for a moment the established order. Question whats not questioned anymore because its just the way it is. be where you belong! Is told to the dog, to the poor, to the traveler, the gypsy, the punk, the Arab, to our urges, our desires, to each and every one. Go fit nicely into the designated box, nice and clean, good dog, be where we expect you to be with your individual microwave dinner, sorted garbage, valid visa... Men, animals and things all alike, at their right place. all things their place each place its thing. As a musician and a performer, we are trying to build a microcosm where music, performance, acting, text, scenography merge into one sole scenic language. Aiming at removing the partition between these different means of expression so that the audience is not sensing various mediums but a flux of information and sensations through the whole.
