À 5 ans, j'ai oublié le français - Anouk Werro

À 5 ans, j'ai oublié le français by Anouk Werro runs from 26 to 30 March 2025 at the Maison Saint-Gervais in Geneva.

In the confines of a car, a father and his two adult children try to talk to each other without ever agreeing on the events that have marked their lives. What has really happened? This play is inspired by real stories... or not... because nobody agrees on the facts. The collective story is modified by individual feelings. And vice versa. In the end, the truth lies nowhere and everywhere. As the car sets off on its journey, intimate landscapes unfold, between the real and the imagined, the past and the present. We pass through them in a succession of fragmented narratives that betray the vulnerabilities of each person; the narratives and mythologies that have locked them into their point of view. It's an immense solitude that they have to come to terms with in order to maintain their own identity within the family unit. Written and directed by Anouk Werro, with co-construction and a space by Mélissa Rouvinet based on the three performers Margot Van Hove, Nicolas Roussi & Jean-Yves Ruf, this family road bad-trip promises to shake and make the child - and perhaps the parent - in us laugh or cry or both.
