This show could have been called The Regretz, or The Holes. It is called Les Voüéces. Les Voüéces are Voices that disturb the daily lives of Rodogonde and Frénéjus, two ladies who live secluded at the top of a very tall tower. Together, they embroider, play and discuss in an enchanted pseudo-medieval language. They try to plug the holes of silence, of time passing, of black bile, or of the dizzying abyss of doing nothing while the world burns. And there are some holes that are hard to plug... But who are these voices trying to talk to them? Ghosts, a hoax, drama, their fear, their guilt or just a stranger looking for shelter? --- Directed by: Louis Bonard Written and performed by: Louis Bonard & Michèle Gurtner Dramaturgy and collaboration: Adina Secretan Lighting: Florian Leduc Set design: Florian Leduc & Martin Riewer Artistic advice: Alain Borek & Anne Delahaye General stage management: Martin Riewer Assistant and general stage management: Charlotte Roche-Meredith Sound: François Planson Administration and production: Michael Scheuplein The sets and costumes were created in collaboration with the teams of Théâtre Vidy-Lausanne Residency host: Abbaye de la Maigrauge - Fribourg, Maison St-Gervais - Genève, La Tannerie / Rhizome association Coproduction: Théâtre Vidy-Lausanne, TO! – Théâtre de l’Orangerie Production: Association Kaïros Support: État de Vaud, Fondation Leenaards, Loterie Romande, Action Intermittence - Fonds d’encouragement à l'emploi des personnes intermittentes genevoises (FEEIG) Thanks to: Claire Dessimoz, Nicolas Leresche, La Caffaude, Les Sœurs de la Maigrauge, Lucien Dugaz, Léo Henry, Hildegarde de Bingen, Derek Jarman and Christine de Pizan
