Poking fun at the premise that a young artist is shaped as much by their roles as by their family history, Milo Rau explores, in this scenic etude, the events that imperceptibly alter the course of our lives: generational conflicts, political history, love, and death. Lighthearted and full of humour, seeking to create theatre by creating a community, LA LETTRE is a manifesto on what popular theatre can be today. From the story of Joan of Arc to Chekhov’s The Seagull, the performance unfolds on multiple levels, in a constant back-and-forth between art and life. Even the dead return to the stage, with the help of recorded voices.
