Description

Paris, 1983: Edwige is translating the adventures of the intrepid and sensual Ultra-Girl, when the superheroine, in a tight-fitting suit and red thigh-high boots, bursts into her living room.<div> Ultra-Girl is here to talk about Edwige, and to recount her romantic journey through intimate, joyful, melancholic memories tinged with pop culture. Edwige's day unfolds like a chaotic, lucid dream, punctuated by the arrival of a washing machine repairman, the sudden appearance of a misogynistic German philosopher, the return of a former lover, and frenetic lip-syncing to movies and TV series. This day will be pivotal, and she will have to choose between fantasy and reality.</div><div><br></div><div> <strong>The press:</strong></div><div><br></div><div> Armelle Héliot's Journal: "The pleasure of the game is maintained by an irresistible trio! There's singing, there's dancing, you're completely immersed! In short, it's theatre."</div><div><br></div><div> Télérama's pick: "Cédric Roulliat uses every trick in the book - musical interludes, playbacks of film dialogue, vintage costume - and manages to draw us into this domestic fantasy."</div><div><br></div><div> Les Echos: "A droll philosophical tale. This joyful, surreal, and slightly philosophical vaudeville is well worth seeing."</div><div><br></div><div> Toute la Culture: "The improbable and hilarious encounter between a comic book superheroine and a misogynistic German philosopher (...) It's clownish and whirlwind-like. By giving us access to Edwige's intimacy, we journey along this mysterious path of femininity. (...) A funny, hilarious, and intelligent play."</div><div><br></div><div> Mediapart: "A tangy treat. The apparent duality of the title resonates like an intriguing slogan that reveals a carefully crafted play. The trio of actors is remarkable. (...) It's an invitation to cultivate one's inventiveness and not be afraid of one's originality. You leave the theater with the idea that we should all be able to be Ultra-Girls, and that it's certainly not reserved for women."</div><div><br></div>
