THE CLOWN'S PATH This show is a (comic) conference about the clown, and more precisely about his soul. We focus on the main characteristics of a clown: the feeling of weakness, of human fragility: delicate feelings without which life is nonsense. In an odd society with an arid heart, the clown, with his funny movements, represents a biological and philosophical fracture, perhaps an alternative: "to be" not "to have". Since man, as Jung said, carries along a dinosaur tail, the foolish and wise play of the clown could perhaps set us free from this weight, from this darkness? The clown puts these words together and changes them into games; crossing, fast as a fire, unsure as a child's step, the frontier between knowledge and ignorance. |
