Charles Mounal and Chloé Dorémieux form a duo of performers mainly focused on the question of alterity and connection, both with each other and with the audience. Their work is based on the following principles:

  • LOVE: Find the connection
  • SUFFER: Find the limit
  • Love is real
  • Suffering is real
  • Set the frame, NOT the path
  • Set the frame, NOT the destination
  • Draw him towards the body
  • Draw her towards the words

AH!

How a single order can transform individuals into a crowd and alter their consciousness.

« Prevent us from touching at all costs »: from this injunction, the cry is born, continuing until our skins are in contact. Bodies enclosed, he discovers her words, she his, until the next separation.

DESERT

Alone in the world, how to find each other (and is it really necessary?).

Blind and deaf until we find each other, the audience can guide us, distance us, ignore us, or hurt us. In our heads and words, a single and same desert, where we search in vain.

TO THE CLIFF

Our rawest intentions and purest feelings can never fully reach the other.

Enclosed, first invisible, the cages prevent us from directly communicating. Even when freed, it’s up to the audience to transmit, execute the instructions, emotions, needs to the other – never exactly as we would want.
