Clémence Caillouel (FRA): The Requiem of Sophie Withman
The Requiem of Sophie Withman is the dark burlesque comedy you’ve been yearning to see. But consider yourself warned: it will end in a bloodbath!
The Requiem of Sophie Withman is the dark burlesque comedy you’ve been yearning to see. But consider yourself warned: it will end in a bloodbath!
Sophie Withman loves fame, romance and stories that end tragically. Reality is deceiving, so she wrote her very own tragedy, and night after night, she brings it to life on stage. You may think you are in for a jazz concert, but a raging melodrama is what it is.
On stage & concept: Clémence Caillouel
Direction: Gözde Atalay
Production: La Volada
Born to a long line of farmers in Normandy in France, Clémence Caillouel is a performer, clown, director and facilitator who is generally found between Barcelona, Berlin and Normandy. She focuses her research in developing theatre that is a blend of experimental theatre, performance art and dark clowning. Her work is personal and sensitive, sometimes extreme and grotesque, often funny, tragic and unusual.
