In half an hour, a lot of love stories can be told. The French company, Collectif AÏE AÏE AÏE, can do this. Charlotte Blin and Julien Mellano, the directors and actors of this performance, narrate around a table and for a familiar audience the process of love, heartbreak and reconciliation of several couples, using quotidian objects, with music and without words. These couples can be a serviette holder and a napkin, a bottle and a jar, or a buk and a rabbit, precisely those in the title of the piece presented in Festival de Otoño: Ma biche et mon lapin.
The Collectif AÏE AÏE AÏE, which takes its name from an expression translated as “Oh no”, was founded in the French city of Rennes. The company is consisting of Julien Mellano, Charlotte Blin and Justine Curatolo, usually accompanied by other artists. They conceive the theater as a place of experimentation and creation, which characterized their fifteen shows crossed by the multiple artistic manifestations such as theater, music, visual arts or cinema, displaying with a preference of the appropriation of objects and an elegant sense of humour. Their productions include Ersatz, Gargantúa, Fulmine and Monsieur Blue.
