Clara Prieur

Leonor joins a contemporary dance company to unravel the mystery of Oraison, a mythical piece performed by her mother thirty years ago, in the hope of understanding what shattered her. She discovers a ritual in which every gesture summons up the ghosts of the past and reopens the wounds of a lineage.

Opera in three acts by Christoph Willibald Gluck, Hector Berlioz's version (1859)

On a Monday morning, a man rings at Mary’s door. Just before he disappeared, he delivers her a strange parcel : a magnificent fruit tray adorned with a ribbon inscribed with a date. What is this date? Why is an hourglass hidden between pomegranates and bunches of grapes ? Dreading a sign announcing her death, Mary wonders if she is not living her last week. We dive into her mind for these seven capital days, looking for inner peace and this mysterious deliverer of forbidden fruits.
