Description
After "Courgette", 7 nominations at the Molières 2024, Cie Paradoxe presents its new show "Zoom".
It's the story of a mother's immeasurable love for her son. It's the story of a mother who will do anything to give her son the best life. It's the story of a success story... At the end of September, a parents' meeting: there she is, "Burt's mother". The one we haven't seen for years, the one we'd probably rather not have seen again. There's no reason for her to be there, yet she's invited herself. So, as the main teacher was late, she got up and spoke. In
struggle with words, she tells her story, her son's story, this "difficult child". She starts from the beginning, the very beginning, in the cinema where Burt was conceived. It all begins
when a single mother invents for her son the destiny she never had. When she dreams of Hollywood for him and drags him along the roads of France so that he meets
glory... When she decides that he won't stay in "a box" like her, and like his own mother. Burt's mother makes us laugh! She's there to ask for forgiveness
forgiveness, to explain and understand. And as the clown's journey unfolds, a real emotion is gradually revealed. We come to understand who she is, and why she's there...".
