Actapalabra
Overview
Intro
Various questions of life explored with humor and without words: funny play for young and old from the age of 4.
ACTAPALABRA is a humorous yet profound series of images. Clowning, acrobatics and subtle poetry combine in this wordless production to pay homage to absurd theater. With wit, without words.
Inspired by Charlie Chaplin and Jacques Tati, Actapalabra explores existential questions: What distinguishes man from machine? How is a relationship between strangers possible? How do you deal with the unforeseen? The two clowns on stage grope for an encounter - they try hard, struggle and still fail all the time! A lonely yet shared adventure and a funny and touching experience for young and old.
The Théâtre Am Stram Gram in Geneva is an international creative center and a cultural venue that cultivates a partnership-based, horizontal relationship with a young audience and gives children and young people a voice. It was founded in 1974 by Dominique Catton and Nathalie Nath and has been directed by Joan Mompart since 2021.
