Complicite Plays - Complicite

. .

Three plays from the internationally-known theatre company.

Résumé :
THE STREET OF CROCODILES is inspired by the life and stories of Polish writer Bruno Schulz (1892-1942).

THE THREE LIVES OF LUCIE CABROL is adapted from John Berger's short story: The story becomes an unsentimental evocation of peasant life, a hymn to the tenacity of love and a Brechtian fable about the world's unfairness....You follow this Complicite version as intensely as you read a Grimms' fairytale Financial Times

MNEMONIC: An ice-preserved body - from 5,200 years ago - forms the central image of Theatre de Complicite's dazzlingly imaginative meditation on memory and morality. Timely and unforgettable - Independent
