Fosse, Chereau: Reve d\'automne

Chéreau, Patrice, Fosse, Jon

BAC 077

Patrice Chéreau returns to the theatre some 8 years after 'Phaedra', with the play 'Dream of Autumn', written by Jon Fosse. A theatre where the characters are no longer names, but He, She, Man, Woman or The Mother in the 'Dream'. The unexpected setting is a room in the Louvre Museum. This magestic and mysterious place inspired set designer Richard Peduzzi. When Patrice Chéreau worked on this adaptation he focused on the mystery of human beings and their hidden meanings. Chéreau decided to work with actors from his 'family': Bulle Ogier is a loyal collaborator from "Les Amandiers", Valeria Bruni-Tedeschi is a former student, Pascal Greggory is his favourite actor for over 10 years and also Michelle Marquais, Bernard Verley and Marie Bunel. For the costume designs, Patrice Chéreau continues his collaboration with Caroline de Vivaise which began with the movie and continued recently on stage ('From the House of the Dead' in Vienna, 'Tristan und Isolde' in Milan). For the lighting design, he also called an old collaborator : Dominique Bruguière. The play was filmed on tour at the Théâtre National de Bretagne in Rennes in May 2011 and featured in the Young Vic Season 2011 in an English Language version as 'I am the Wind' by Simon Stephens: Breathtakingly beautiful... some of the greatest theatre I have ever witnessed The Independent . I was thrilled by its epic intimacy... an intensely dramatic evening Sunday Times Stunning The Guardian
