"Life must be lived with an eye to the future, but it can only be understood by looking back to the past.
Søren Kierkegaard
Entre chiens et louves (Between Dogs and Wolves) plunges us into a historical epic that reveals the intimacy of three characters living in different eras: 1870, 1960 and 2022. Tracing their journeys, the play is a prodigious excursion through time to the present day, evoking the collective memories of which we are made, filled with revolt and emancipation but which still divide us today.
A true testament to the human condition, the piece paints a picture of a world full of hope, of bodies in motion, and offers a glimpse of the forgotten who are just waiting to be reborn. Conceived as a film in which the scenes unfold, it opens up the space for the eight virtuosos who take us on an epic adventure where comedy, spectacular acrobatics and dance numbers mingle, magnifying with ardour a society that is humane and supportive!
