This is the story of two men, two grown boys lost in the cosmos. Stranded on a space station, Boris and Kyril have no idea when they will be able to return home. One succumbs to melancholy and spends his days crying, while the other rejoices, filled with a newfound sense of omnipotence. With the artificial intelligence Vivianne as their sole companion, their lives are punctuated by video calls to Earth. On stage, technology is conspicuously absent; no screens or machines, only poetry and burlesque. This intergalactic journey unfolds through a raw and minimalist form of theatre that relies on imagination: the bodies and souls of the performers, supplemented by misapproptiated everyday items. Fusées passionately recounts the wild adventure of space exploration, with all its hopes and setbacks.
Fusées تروي للأطفال كما للبالغين ملحمة الاستكشاف الفضائي، وتثريها بفضل الأدوات الحرفية للمسرح.
