G.O.L.D. premiered in 2022 as part of the Festival La Bâtie, then toured the Valais (Le Spot in Sion) and the canton of Vaud (L'Oriental in Vevey). ‘is a large-scale project (9 people on stage), we decided to design a ‘light’ version of the show in order to widen the network of potential venues.This version has 3 people on stage (1 musician, 1 actress and 1 stage technician).
G.O.L.D. is about failure! How do we get rid of the pressure to perform, to win, to succeed that follows us into every corner of our lives? G.O.L.D. is a play that frees us from the tyranny of success. Inspired by award ceremonies, the show is a satire in which the credit given to glory and success is replaced by the credit given to failure, in all its infinite varieties and unexplored territories. The multidisciplinary showG.O.L.D. questions notions of glory and defeat, of heroes and anti-heroes, at a time when the ceremonies themselves are being called into question on a massive scale for the first time. It's a questioning that extends to a system of growth, power, competition and patriarchal values that blows up on red carpets and far beyond. |
