Half man, half woman, or rather neither man nor woman like this Swedish pronoun "Hen" (pronounced "heun") which applies in a neutral way to one or the other sex Hen is an extraordinary being, with multiple identities, in constant transformation, but always faithful to its utopian genre. The music-hall artist with formidable virile charm and devastating femininity invites us into his flamboyant and voluptuous cabaret To sing about the freedom of bodies and desires, of minds and fantasies, with disarming humor and sincerity that ignores vulgarity and in the process strike an imperious heel (needle) against moralist prejudices.
In this show, Johanny Bert explores questions of gender identities by drawing more than ever from the transgressive and subversive potential of the puppet. Here, everything is allowed and everything is possible, from the uninhibited words to the dizzying metamorphoses in which the hybrid character indulges, manipulated on sight by an actor and the director himself, who also lends him his voice. The songs sometimes saucy, sometimes moving are carried By The quivering strings of an electro-acoustic cello and The sensual cadences of percussion. in the light of fluorescent neon lights and sparkling rhinestones, this insolent review defies taboos, conformism and appearances with an absolutely delightful freshness.
