SUMMARY:LACRIMA
DESCRIPTION:“…lots of invisible work\, much of it underpaid and done in poor conditions\, goes into a fashion statement.”\nThe New York Times  \n  \n“Admirablement construit\, mis en scène\, scénographié et interprété\, Lacrima vous happe dès les premières secondes et ne vous lâche plus durant les trois heures.”\nLe Figaro  \n  \n“This is a monumental\, magnetic production.”\nThe Guardian \n  \n«Caroline Guiela Nguyen préfère les gens de l’ombre\, le petit peuple des invisibles qui\, grâce à elle\, accèdent\, au théâtre\, à des existences dignes de ce nom.»\nLe Monde \n  \nLondon\, 2025\, the Princess of England announces her engagement. Our story begins when representatives of her Highness contact a venerable French fashion house located at number 8\, rue du marché Saint-Honoré in Paris\, to place an order for a wedding gown. \nThe show will follow the making of the royal commission\, as it passes from expert hand to expert hand. Over 8 months\, and the equivalent of 9 057 work hours\, we will see the creative acts that bring into being a dress already destined to go down in history. A rare privilege\, as the whole process is bound by the strictest codes of confidentiality. If the world of high fashion is habitually secretive\, the nature of the commission has put everyone on red alert. \nFrom a Parisian house of haute couture\, we venture to an embroidery workshop in Mumbai and a traditional lace -making workshop in Alençon\, France. \nThree worlds\, linked by their work\, high level of expertise and secrecy. \nThree workshops where violence will erupt among the threads of cotton and flax. \nThree workshops where the bodies of men and women have been ruined not only by labour\, but also by past wrongs of which they are the unwitting\, even unknowing\, \ncustodians. \nWithout ever losing sight of the expertise these craftsmen and women wield\, or the power and knowledge they have in their hands\, the question the show will ask\, over and over\, is if there is a space\, in the silence the secret imposes\, between what destroys us and what preserves us?
