Residency SCENE44 I co Ex Nihilo Anne Le Batard - The other side of here
The other side of here, sharing our taste for places.
*Exploring one’s town, looking for closed, abandoned places that are waiting for demolition, forgotten and neglected. And proposing, for one evening, a poetic passage through them that brings the walls back to life, makes them talk, transforms them and tells their story differently.
The other side of here is an inversion that gives a new reality – or unreality – to a place, which daily use too often prevents us envisaging.
Following the faults, deriving new meanings, inventing other narratives, strange off-beat situations, to translate L’Envers d’ici / The other side of here, that of the place where we will live for a unique moment shared with the audience, the users and the occupants.
The other side of here affirms how much of the extraordinary is in the banal.
