Mechanical theatre
Magali Rousseau did her training in the “objects” department at the ESAD in Strasbourg: she builds all sorts of scenic mechanisms and stage props. In Je brasse de l’air (I watch air move), we can see her perform among fantastic poetic and fragile machines that work thanks to cranks, pedals and steam, which move on their own, turn and roll around, drag along and limp and try to fly away… Her « illusory theatre » creates a real fantasy as she interprets a simple, personal and touching text.
