Zoé - Cie Idiomécanic

« I am 8 years old. It’s the year of Cyrano de Barjolac. Well, something like that. Dad walks around with a fake nose and a sword that gets caught in doors. He jumps everywhere, he laughs very loudly, he is brilliant, he is my dad. I have a new friend at school, Victor. He prefers to collect "Jeanne et Serge" cards rather than watch The Ring of the Nibelungs with me.

I am 10 years old. It’s the year of King Read. Mom tells Dad to get up because she is tired of doing everything at home while he cries all day in his pajamas. In my room, Victor is doing Brunhilde, and I am playing Siegfried, the fearless knight. One day, I will save my dad.

I am 40 years old. I am a woman, an artist, a mother. I am writing a show about my childhood. I haven’t seen my father for ten years. »

Raised in a colorful family of artists, with a bipolar, toxic, and genius father and a mother trying to hold things together, Zoé navigates between wonders and chaos. An initiatory quest, a tribute to childhood, an epic in constant balance between laughter and tears, Zoé is a joyful adventure, a story of filial love, emancipation, and transcendence through art.
