The Count of Monte Cristo
Three storyteller-actors take over Dumas's masterpiece, retracing the plot and disrupting its chronology in a syncopated and sharp pacing. A memory game where vengeance and pain clash, memories scramble and confuse, leading audiences through a dizzying maze envisioned by Dumas. Betrayed and confined for fourteen years, miraculously freed and thought dead by those he once loved and hated, Dantès, now the Count of Monte Cristo, meticulously constructs his revenge, gathers secrets of his enemies, and embarks on a perilous journey. The staging presents a contemporary rhythm and a stripped-down design with a minimalist platform. Three actors portray numerous characters in a fragmented narrative. The use of modern and electronic sounds and dramatic lighting highlights this theatrical experience.
