Fragile at Theatre National

Through three stories, Fragile relates the unwavering desire to live, the beauty of uncertainty, non-conformity, resistance, the power of the imagination which makes everything possible.

Fragile is a show with actors, props and puppets.
The two actresses are mostly in sight, sometimes spectators and sometimes actors in these moments of life.

" ... With Fragile, Isabelle Darras and Julie Tenret mix performance, props and puppets. Three short stories follow each other on a revolving stage ... the last story, which introduces a wandering rabbit who is stopped at the border for non-conformity, is a gem." Le Soir, August 2009

"Three stories, three settings in order to recount the rifts, the scars which haunt our lives using small props or puppets. The loneliness which sometimes weighs too heavily, accidents, wars, couples who split up, intolerance ... Whether they are manipulating things in hiding or in sight, Isabelle Darras and Julie Tenret offer us a fine story of complicity, moments of humour and poetry. If we are fragile human beings, we are also capable of bouncing back, of resisting. This beautiful, subtle show reminds us of that." Le Ligueur
