Anywhere

Théâtre de l’Entrouvert and Chicago International Puppet Theater Festival present Anywhere.

Anywhere is a wandering in the footsteps of Oedipus on the road of Henry Bauchau, a visual poem that invites the viewer to live through the different states of the element Water, the inner metamorphosis of a mythical character.

The fallen Oedipus appears in the form of an ice puppet that gradually turns into water then into mist and disappears in the Erynian Forest, the place of clairvoyance. His daughter, Antigone, accompanies him, supports him and attends, confident, to his disappearance. The inner evolution of this mystical character is in the image of the metamorphosis of water. The spectator is invited to live an experience: to be one with the transformed material.
