Winter's Tale by William Shakespeare
Périclès, Prince de Tyr de William Shakespeare Mise en scène – Declan Donnellan Scénographie – Nick Ormerod Suite à Ubu Roi en 2013/14/15, Declan Donnellan et Nick Ormerod reviendront à la langue française avec une création de PÉRICLÈS de Shakespeare en 2018 et 2019. Avec PÉRICLÈS, la compagnie signera sa première création de Shakespeare en langue française, pièce qui complétera son cycle des quatre 'romances tardives' de Shakespeare, après Cymbeline (2007), La tempête (2011) et Le conte d'hiver (2015). Nous sommes à la recherche de co-producteurs et de partenaires pour réaliser cette nouvelle création. Ubu Roi a été présenté pendant 34 semaines sur trois continents, et dans des villes comme Paris, Londres, New York, Moscou, Madrid et Venise. A propos d'Ubu Roi : « Donnellan obtient des interprétations sans retenue de sa troupe … le déchainement d’un champ de bataille au sein d'un univers chic et raffiné. » – The Guardian (Royaume-Uni) « Outrancière, débordente d'une énergie sans retenue » – Le Figaro (France) PÉRICLÈS, prince de Tyr PÉRICLÈS est l’une des plus étonnantes et bouleversantes des œuvres de Shakespeare. Naufragé au large de la mer méditerranée, Périclès est contraint de braver une marée de pirates, de ravisseurs et de magiciens ; de bordels, de tournois et de complots … et jusqu’à une intervention divine de la déesse Diane. Inceste, trahison, meurtre, amour et joie s’entremêlent dans ce feu d'artifice théâtral, puis, à la lumière tamisée de ses braises, Périclès retrouve sa fille Marina dans l’une des plus belles scènes que Shakespeare ait jamais écrites.
