European Theatre Ensemble

The creation and the international tour of the new performance by Christiane Véricel “Ici là-bas” Here and There is the driving force behind both the project and the creation of the Ensemble Théâtral Européen: the European Theatre EnsembleThe company wish is to develop this highly professional artistic and training program to allow teenagers and young adults met in France and in Europe at national and international workshops, to meet together around a project that combines artistic search and training. It would allow them to reach an international dimension and be trained at different artistic languages such as dancing, singing and specific dram techniques, puppets…).

“Using strong and poetical image to tell about “the living together” Christiane Véricel has built an enthralling performance, based on a subtle mixture of humour and dignity charmingly embodied by the comedians.  It’s just fabulous.”

Christine Monin, La Vie, 11/02/09

Lucas, Olga, Maciej, Servan, Burhan and Liliane: So many different names to remind the uniqueness of a story and the sense of universality that goes through this group of young comedians.

All of them have different ages, cultures and nationalities, and are willing to go back over their theatrical work.

They talk about there training on stage but also about their experience within a group of artists.

Words taken from some interviews with children:

Olga: That interesting thing Is that those who are acting on stage are from a different culture.
