November 8 – November 10 2024Comedy of the absurd… inside a crazy metaphysical thriller
“She” has but one goal: to accomplish her irreducible daily tasks at a pace robotically dictated by “the Machine”. Taken in by an online advertisement, the Woman to whom nothing happens is confronted by what she most dreads: that a thing should happen to her. A modern, zany fairy tale, La Femme à qui rien n’arrive will make your hair stand on end.
Written by and starring Leonore Chaix
Directed by Anne Le Guernec
“Léonore Chaix upsets our daily certainties and makes us laugh in equal measure. Exquisitely.” 3 “T”s. (Télérama)
“The writing is extravagant, extraordinary. A tiny treasure.” (Le Masque et la plume, France Inter.)
“A clown masquerading as a woman. A thoroughly enjoyable, uproarious sendup. Prepare for full-throated laughter.” (Causette Magazine)
“A theatrical UFO, with oddly rich, brilliant and inventive humor”. (La Provence)
