A multidisciplinary laboratory at the crossroads between contemporary opera, anthropological and documentary theater and the creation of sound spaces.

Spinteuse Eurydice is a lyric research-creation project that brings together playwright Royds Fuentes-Imbert and mezzo-soprano Marie-Annick Béliveau. Between action, narration, description and screams, Royds’ writing and Marie-Annick’s interpretation allow them to experiment with the porosities between song, theater and dance in registers unexplored by the lyric art. Their collaboration on this laboratory is based on questions and issues that the artists share: how to free the body of an opera singer from all the restraints imposed by a long artistic practice and a heavy technical and stylistic heritage? How to break these “protections” and engage it completely, as a whole, as a bios (voice-body-energy) in the performance?

Through the presentation of short excerpts, the public will be able to discover the stages and reflections that marked out their experimentation process and will be invited to share their impressions and questions.
