Le Cheval de Février, Cos 2009

An equestrian exploration of love in its diverse forms and unbridgeable distances...

...based very loosely on the play L’Homme de Février by Gildas Milin

Horses: Ether, India, Kim, Maeva, Mali, Petra, Sheik
Vaulters: Bryony, Cécile, Eleanor, Élodie, Manon, Yoanna
Actresses on horseback: Amparo, Claire, Géraldine, Hélène, Sylvie
Musicians: Amparo, André, Hélène, Pierre, Virginie, Zébulon
Poster design: Virginie Sanchez
Texts: Gildas Milin, Zébulon Diode

Our first ever show with a real rock group, real songs, and a real play behind it. Then one unforgettable compliment (carve it on my gravestone), from a member of the audience after the last performance on 31 July: "you put real meaning back into the word 'amateur': he who loves!"

Thanks!
