Médail Décor

Médail décor was the brand name of a furniture fabric store in Valence. Of this anecdote, we may not know more. Yet it is at the origin of a hybrid writing that disorganizes and rearranges the language, situations as well as memories. After Sus à la Bibliothèque! and Les protragronistes, Médail décor is the third episode in a series of shows based on back and forth in time. On the set, Vincent Thomasset talks, reads, tells stories while his double dancer, Lorenzo De Angelis, appropriates the images and figures proposed by the text. One constantly moves the other, pushes him around, makes him diverge. From this duel, rules are improvised that inevitably awaken the games of childhood.

“A humorous way of reporting in public, the tribulations of a young man who, in the end, sees no other way than to be an artist.” Patrick Sourd, Les Inrockuptibles
