Théâtre: "Elémentaire"

By and about Sébastien Bravard Alone on stage, Sébastien tells his story: that of a great leap into the void, a tipping point. Making sense. As an actor, he has just taken charge of a class of 27 students. Where to start? How do you go about it, on the first day of the first class? What is authority, anyway? Élémentaire tells the story of a transition between two worlds: the stage and the classroom. There's a strength that emanates from this moment of invention and doubt that is the birth of a vocation. The eyes of the beginner to rediscover the world of childhood, at once creative, painful and joyful. The eyes of a child to reconsider the world. Schoolteacher by day, actor by night, Sébastien shares his questions, joys and doubts, taking us back to an essential, elementary place: childhood. The candid view of a novice: "And then it's a bit like that, my first paragliding jump, you run, you run and you take off, except this time you're not sure you've got a paraglider on your back. That's how it starts? "Sébastien Bravard recounts his first year in "Élémentaire", a one-man show that's fair, funny and touching. - Le Parisien
