Instructions to amble through a country

Instructions to amble through a country is a walk. Action is built through a set of instructions that the spectator has to activate. All the audience, together, starts on a same place and at each crossroad is confronted with a question about the reality of what they see. Slowly each spectator will find him or herself alone, sometimes he will cross other spectators, sometimes he’ll come back through places he had already passed. The city through the questions will become a theatrical piece and its inhabitants thee actors. A choreography. A reflection, theatricality and imagination game.

This piece is part of our works on community and participation. In this practices we generate contexts where individual thought creates collectivity.
