Old Age Cycle
Strike. Clowns on strike
Traveling performance
Strike! Clowns on strike
variable duration | outdoor | all ages | creation 2024
WE’RE ON STRIKE! WE’RE ON STRIKE! WE’RE ON STRIKE!
Enough with short synopsis of performances! Enough of this hypocritical rhetoric full of sad and trite words. “Beautiful, funny, original” — how disgusting! A traveling performance to give voice to the audience: their hopes, their objections and their desire to party!

Thematic focus
Old Age Cycle
Since 2011, Madame Rebiné has been exploring the figure of the elderly as a poetic and comic icon, a natural clown filled with human contrasts: gentleness and harshness, altruism and selfishness, suffering and euphoria, fear and recklessness. This gives rise to performances and projects that give voice, space and dignity to the elderly.
