After her hit show the “Irish Story” we are delighted to promote Kelly Rivière, a chameleon-like artist, who moves from one character to the next with aquatic fluidity, for this long-awaited second spell bound journey. The tragicomic one-woman show in residence at LES PLATEAUX SAUVAGES before its first performances.

Don’t miss the birth of La vie Rêvée, and see how it looks to miss out on life!

Kelly Ruisseau is 13 and wants to be a prima ballerina. But as we all know, real life rarely matches up to our childhood dreams. It makes us take side roads, it plays tricks on us. But if everything was written in advance, where would the adventure be? Kelly Ruisseau is now 40 and an actress… well, an intermittent one. (Mis)adventures are her daily life!

Max Kennedy "The Moment" Exhibition

Delighted to promote this young photographer presenting his work in Paris.

Max Kennedy, born in 1992 is based in London and son of the writer Douglas Kennedy. He graduated from the Fine Arts College of America, Ringling College, in Florida. He then completed the postgraduate programme at Goldsmiths University in London.

His work has appeared in publications as diverse as Le Figaro Magazine and Le Journal du Dimanche. Passionate about all forms of cultural activity, he has worked for the London Symphony Orchestra and several arts groups. He is also an accomplished portrait photographer.

But one of his main interests is what he calls ‘the street view’: capturing the complexities and contradictions of contemporary life.

Come and see this exhibition, ‘The Moment’, which examines individuals in contemporary urban environments: London, Paris, Berlin.

Speaking about his case, Max notes ‘Autism can be a lonely place’ ‘As such, I am fascinated by (and empathise with) the loneliness of individuals in a metropolitan landscape. There’s so much going on at any given time in a city…, with the expectation of constant professional and personal connection. But in the midst of all this activity and bustle, there’s also a lot of disconnection and loneliness’.

Performance by June McGrane (Mná Member)

Family entertainment guaranteed!

The three performers from Compagnie Mamaille decided to adapt Charles Dickens’ English social novel for the stage. It’s the story of a poor child who, from one day to the next, is plunged into the world of the rich. Using masks and originally devised props, Augustine, Hélène and June enthusiastically and light-heartedly adapt the book for the stage, without erasing its social mechanics or the indecency of its inequalities – quite the contrary. Lively, intelligent theater for the whole family, with a touch of burlesque and absurd humor!

One of the favorites at the 2023 Avignon Festival.
