Play - Les Sans Lacetes
Overview
Intro
The Sans-Lacets theater company returns with a thought-provoking play by Matéi Vișniec about exile, the migration crisis, and the excesses of a globalized world.
There Are Too Many of Us on This Damn Boat
For over 15 years, the theater troupe Les Sans-Lacets has been presenting socially conscious plays that reinterpret the great works of theatrical history. After exploring the absurdity of totalitarian power two years ago, the troupe returns in 2026 with the play *There Are Too Many of Us on This Damn Boat* by playwright Matéi Vișniec. This project came about in part because the troupe was contacted by the Association des Tables du Rhône to perform at their volunteers’ evening in September. The actors will therefore perform for the association before presenting their play to the public.
Matei Vișniec’s play was written in the wake of the emotional and media upheaval caused by the summer 2015 migration crisis, during which hundreds of thousands of people attempted to reach Europe at the risk of their lives. It examines the rootlessness of a globalized world, which allows those not invited to the table of unbridled capitalism to die. Through several striking and uncompromising snapshots, the play recounts the disillusionment and misery of one of the great tragedies of our time, straddling the line between humanity and inhumanity.
