10 Objects
We see a table where are 10 objects: a cassette, a bottle, broccoli, a tea towel... The objects are the protagonists of the story. What will it be? A love story? A life story? A story filled with suspense and emotion? What if it was a bit of all of these? 10 objects is an intimate work for an actress and 10 objects. This is a singular story, where the game and the manipulation of objects respond to each other for a sensitive and funny performance.
Star Show
On the eve of space tourism and low-cost shuttles to the moon, the Bakélite company uses all its ingenuity to offer a journey that only an elite of women and men have accomplished. Following in the footsteps of these space pioneers, we set off towards the unknown. Begining the ignition sequence, 3… 2… 1… Takeoff! But to go where? Behind a table all tiled in white, the protagonist prepares for a journey into space. With everyday objects and references to pop culture, the audience is humorously drawn into this conquest.

About the Artists
The collective Les Becs Verseurs was founded in 2005 in Rennes to create tale’s shows. Today, with over 10 years' experience under its belt, the group is made up of Myriam Gautier, Ivonig Jan and Marina Le Guennec, and explores a range of play and storytelling techniques, especially storytelling and object theatre.
Compagnie Bakélite was founded in 2005 in Rennes. Artistic director Olivier Rannou specialises in creating memorable shows for family audiences, combining the atrociously comic with the straight-up crazy.
Theirs is an art of meticulous detail and exacting precision, combining wild imagination with practical ingenuity. Playing with symbols and the evocative force of ordinary objects, Compagnie Bakélite is capable of conjuring up an army with three figurines, folding whole cities into a suitcase, and turning a piggy bank into a real financial institution.
