CANCELLED - Les Vies en soi
Patrick Corillon, Le corridor
Sitting at his table, the story teller turns the pages of his intimate sagas. In the manner of the Japanese benshi – narrators of silent movies – he manipulates objects, projects images, illustrates his stories of encounters and of his interior journeys.

His journey-stories full of surprises, fed with anecdotes of his life, of his childhood, invite the spectator to open up to new reflections, starting at the tangible to soar towards the philosophic and the universal. An artist to (re)discover during five performances.
