Ariane Ascaride
Known by the general public for her roles in Robert Guédiguian's films (Marius and Jeannette, Marie-Jo and her Two Loves, The Army of Crime), Ariane Ascaride never, however, gave up the stage. On it, she notably interpreted texts by Véronique Olmi, Serge Valletti, Jean Bouchaud, Dario Fo and Franca Rame. What is not as well known is that Ariane Ascaride also co-wrote, with Marie Desplechin, the script of Voyage in Armenia. The pair is calling today on the dancer and choreographer Thierry Thieû Niang and all three of them, based on A Midsummer Night's Dream by Shakespeare, will carry us along into a waking dream, in full daylight with fantasy and poetry.
