The exploration boat, the HMS Bizzarium, sails the seven seas to search for creatures of myth and lore. The streets become canals, the buildings create fjords, old men on benches become beached whales. As the boat rocks in the wind, schools of fish agglomerate in its wake. The two explorers dive into the depths of a mysterious oceanic aquarium. They comb the ocean’s floor in a city beneath the sea. In the bliss of the abyss they unveil a shipwreck that is their own. The mission is clear: Discover the creatures that lie beneath dreams. Capture the treasure of the unknown. Live to tell the tale
Les Sages Fous propose a theatre of paradoxes: grotesque and poetic, ritual and mundane, domestic and marvellous. The company recreates a lost world where the mask, the puppet, the object and the human coexist. A theatre where images and gestures speak more strongly than words. A theatre that is as surprising and disturbing as it is wild and undisciplined. Their performance has participated in over 50 international theatre festivals and won numerous awards both throughout Europe and overseas in the past three years.
