Hybrid theatre. A solo in a world that is wavering. On an island of cardboard, Guillaume Bariou embodies a drifting man, traversed by his thoughts and the stories of the world. Blending theatre, dance, music and image, Who Cares ? unfolds a sensitive crossing, at the heart of what collapses and is transformed within us.
