Stéphane Bullion - Clairemarie Osta

New resumed Caligula that input at this First introduces the theme of suffering and misunderstanding through this portrait of Stéphane Bullion human side of the emperor. Caligula is different and takes his difference and his contact with the characters he often unfinished, and the following Senators with whom he is trying to mislead the early and quickly, a strange vision of itself as an anachronistic De Profundis . In his character, Stephane Bullion wonderfully restored the contradiction of being killer his desires and who engages in a flight forward. Here she is by breaking the leaves and abroad to stage of life.

Stéphane Bullion - Clairemarie Osta

Stéphane Bullion opens his eyes, staring at, laughed at times where it is and what he feels, brief contact with reality but the leak in the dream with the Moon, the unusual with his horse and personal accomplishment with which momentarily Mnester gives meaning to his existence, while contacts with senators and his followers are just tired and problems.
Sheer and fleeting Clairemarie Osta embodies a moon of desire, an ideal of mystery he wants to drill and disclosing the substance of his sufferings. Seeker, alternately amazed and annoyed, he has no recourse but to kill this being intangible returns to the unobtainable unlike his horse Incitatus.

Stéphane Bullion - Nicolas Paul

In his fascination Mnester for the pantomime, he finds the intangible nature of the unreal but the game ever again for the actor who operates in an artificial world.

The perfect connection with the Mnester of Nicolas Paul probably benefited from reading here that Stéphane Bullion will present itself to Mnester in another distribution.

The duet between the two is magic. While the Moon is only fleeting and impressionistic touch, Mnester is the symbol of time stops as possible, openness to self-knowledge, the epitome of achievement.

With three partners of the strange, Caligula stands heavily Roman intrigue and death seized him in a reality that was leaking. Mortally wounded, it falls to earth and shows the breadth of his misunderstanding. While Nicolas Le Riche seems to have curbed his steps throughout the ballet as if to show discomfort or inappropriateness of Caligula, he wrote in the last few minutes, a solo of extraordinary violence that Stéphane Bullion door climax in an opposition between a body almost impossible to power multiplied and terrorized faces and unhappy that restores the fragile Man facing death. Within minutes, the return on her short life, the greatness, the look on the other, laughing at oneself, misunderstanding, aggression, pain and grief ...
