TICHELBE
July 9-15th, 2017
Festival d’Avignon – Théâtre Benoît XII

A woman tries to find balance between her two personalities. A man enters, seemingly determined: what does he want, and will he let himself be caught up in her problems? A constant game then begins between the protagonists, that brings them closer together, sometimes in surreal ways.
