Four figures, erect as totems, stand huddled in a space too narrow to accommodate them all. Their gazes wander, blurred, far apart, as if hesitant to meet. For at the center of the stage hovers a silent question: where to sit? Who will give up their seat? What should be done?
¨Deux chaises pour quatre ("Two Chairs for Four") recounts that moment of latency when there are not enough seats and no one wants to give up. An everyday scene made universal: the weight of compromise, the fear of losing, the difficulty of existing together in a space that is too small—material or symbolic.
A silent work yet filled with thoughts, suppressed emotions, and intimate calculations. A motionless theater that aims to be filled with humor and empathy for these characters, so human and endearing.
