FESTIV'HANOI
"Le quatrième mur"
Performed by ATH Drama & Improv's students (16-18 y.o)
"Claude, a slightly unsuccessful but inspired director, invites the audience to a rehearsal. But is the audience really the audience or is the audience part of this play? In any case, it is not a rehearsal to which everyone is invited, it is about redefining theatre and through this journey surely meeting characters with particular stories.
A play, yes. But a classic play with a text that the actors follow with a clear cast? Or a staged play that the actors will replay a hundred times if they have to? No! nothing like that, welcome to a world between theatre and improvisation where even if the whole thing follows a narrative framework, each moment is completely invented and reinvented each time. "

“La guerre de Troie n'aura pas lieu”
Performed by ATH Drama's students (Adult)
"The Trojan War will not take place,"" says Andromache as the curtain opens on the terrace of Priam's palace. Paris no longer loves Helen and Helen has lost her taste for Paris, but Troy will not give up the captive. For all the men in the city 'there is nothing left but Helen's step, Helen's cubit, the range of Helen's glance or voice', and the augurs themselves refuse to let her go.
Hector, for Troy, and Odysseus, for Greece, try at all costs to save the peace. But war is a matter of fate, not of human will. The Trojan War will happen.
Performed by 5 actors, this gigantic peplum takes shape with discretion in the shadows and the simplicity. "
