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.

Who Cares ?

La Manufacture

A play never begins with an idea. Instead, it is the result of a perfect blend of life, theater, and things we want to achieve—or fail to achieve. During rehearsals for Don DeLillo's Players, Mao II, and The Names, I wondered what it would be like to stage a classic like The Seagull and, after the scene in which Treplev's play is performed, have the production culminate in destruction and the annihilation of its characters—either through an attack by armed terrorists or the gradual disappearance of the costumed characters from the stage. At first, I thought this was the result of my anger at the theater world, its traditions, and the audience's supposed expectations of what they know—that is, the repertoire.
