L'Aquarium

In The Aquarium, nothing is forbidden, nothing is censored, madness finds its place in a universe that seems out of step with reality, as if to reflect the absurdity of life. Mixing humour and poetry, this play questions the classic heterosexual couple as the idyllic pattern of love relationships and the main model valued by our societies. Is human love, especially in this form, as mystical and inexplicable as we think? Does it really escape all rationality and therefore science? On the other hand, what if the underwater world contained more mysteries than we imagined? Then a pizza delivery girl, fascinated by the ocean abyss and intrigued by the workings of love, takes over the scene. She observes an average couple, Solal and Anastasia, in the manner of an animal documentary, creating amazing parallels between underwater life and what is happening on the set. She likes to tell people incredible stories and she likes things to always have a scientific explanation, but what is her secret behind this need to understand everything? At first sight, she is the main character of the show, until she is overcome by the urge to intervene and loses all control over the situation.
