When you leave the show, your eyes shine above the mask which has a hard time hiding the smiles.

We almost have the impression that the five acts that have just taken place before our eyes have passed very quickly, a bit like a childhood dream.

An adventurous epic, based on a true story, a mixture of great history and personal destiny, geopolitics and choreography, tragedy and comedy, text and music, song and dance.

A rhythmic, choral and total show, which brings together 8 actors and 3 singer-songwriters in a very simple, almost minimalist setting, but with beauty, poetry and ingenuity.

Created last summer (2021) at the Festival OFF d'Avignon,

's new show has arrived in Paris.

"Lawrence of Arabia" is to be discovered until February 27, 2022 at the Théâtre 13ème art.
