A theatre festival featuring two original and exclusive productions: “From One Breath to Another” (“D’un souffle à l’autre”) AND “Facing the Void” (“Face au vide”) Performances in French with English surtitles Directed by Candice Desmet The Festival: To celebrate the end of the season, Act’In Theatre presents not one but two original and exclusive theatre productions as part of its “Between Heaven & Earth” Festival (Festival “Entre Ciel & Terre) “From One Breath to Another” (“D’un souffle à l’autre”) and “Facing the Void” (“Face au vide”) will each be performed twice over the weekend of 13–14 June. Come and discover our vision at the heart of humanity’s origins, and our interpretation of the place where the sky begins to transform. A weekend of four performances, presented in French with English surtitles — not to be missed! Performance: “FROM ONE BREATH TO ANOTHER” (“D’un souffle à l’autre”) In an ancient cave, a tribe prepares to say farewell to one of their own, struck by lightning in the midst of a violent storm. Everything appears to follow an unchanging ritual… until something goes terribly wrong. Around the body, silences begin to crack. Secrets rise to the surface, relationships fall apart, and hidden truths are revealed. And just as everything seems on the verge of collapse… an unexpected event disrupts the established order. What was meant to be a simple ceremony becomes a disturbing experience, suspended between fire and questioning. Certainties begin to crumble. Boundaries disappear. Blending humour, tension and poetry, this production takes the audience on a dizzying journey through one essential question: how do we find meaning in our existence? Performance: “FACING THE VOID” (“Face au vide”) High above the skies, order begins to falter. A message from humankind crosses worlds… and reaches those who believed they had everything under control. Nothing unfolds as expected. Souls appear where they should not exist. Landmarks collapse. Certainties crack. And faced with this upheaval, those who govern are confronted with something they have never known before: doubt. For beneath their power, they may not be so different after all. Desires, jealousy, exhaustion, the need to exist… Despite their immense powers, they carry deeply human flaws and simple, almost naïve questions they have never truly learned to hear — or accept. Between tension, absurdity and revelation, roles become blurred, powers spiral out of control, and an unexpected truth slowly emerges: what if those who observe life have never truly learned how to live? What was meant to be a simple management of the world becomes a dizzying exploration of existence, the value of the present moment, and the fragility of all things. Blending humour, chaos and poetry, this production invites the audience to reflect on one essential question: what remains when everything begins to fall apart?
