Theatre Without Animals
by Jean-Michel Ribes
Translated by Brooke Budy
Under special permission by Jean- Michel Ribes, the managing director of Théâtre du Rond-Point, The Factory Theatre presented for its inaugural production the English World Premier of Jean-Michel Ribes series of 8 Absurdist stories that make up his collection Théâtre sans animaux. Performed in 12 different countries and in 12 different languages but never in English till this production. Eight absurdist pieces that make up one enjoyable, funny, and heartwarming evening of theatre. Jean-Michel plays take a closer look at how we see our lives, relationships, and conversations with each other and then place it in a fluid, airy, and floating environment where these connections and interactions can occur, co-mingle and disconnect with each other.
