Description | Through the tribulations of the main character, the incarnation of the anti-hero, Peer Gynt is first and foremost the story of a journey through space and time, from north to south, from youth to maturity. In this original staging, Olivier Py emphasizes the initiatory nature of a pilgrimage to the hilt where Peer Gynt, wanting to put the Trolls' motto to the test, begins a long wandering. Leaving his native country, he took the winding paths that led him to preach in the desert, travelling through the South to better understand, on his return to Norway, the emptiness of his own existence. |
