After the "Aperitifs-tragedies", the company Le Festin des Idiots brings literary classics back into our daily lives by taking on L'Ingénieux Hidalgo Don Quichotte de la Manche.
A trestle table. A lot of objects. A story impossible to tell and two intrepid actors who throw themselves headlong into the abundance of this jubilant text.
Outlandish escapades, philosophical digressions, a quest for the Absolute and for dry socks—it becomes impossible to discern what belongs to the adventures of the famous knight and his squire, or what is invented, accidental, or magical. In this joyful chaos, sown even among the audience, the cruel questions of our world emerge, transparently: will it be impossible to be just, to avoid betraying oneself? How can one remain faithful, to the very end, to what one believes?
And well, what do we believe have to do with reality, really?
What is true here?
