Cie Dame de Pic / Karine Pontiès

A solo piece choreographed by Karine Pontiès and focusing on the enigmatic ancestral, poetic power of scarecrows.

Delicately yet boldly, the scarecrow arrives on stage bearing on his shoulders a long bamboo rod, reminiscent of the curving line of the horizon.

 

Buffeted by the wind, thrown down like a rag or borne up like a flame, this peculiar tightrope walker offers up a wild pantomime.
A poet from some lost age, surveying his kingdom from the corner of a field, the scarecrow is a deceptive being, a mysterious creature which instantly evokes memories of childhood, a portal to a forgotten world. The countryside’s forgotten soldiers, noticed only by children…
