Quand je ne dis rien je pense encore

What if a poem could really speak to us? That's the aspiration Louise Chevillotte sets out to achieve at Les Plateaux Sauvages, bringing Quebec poet Camille Readman Prud'homme's first collection to the stage. The actress embodies this long prose poem of virtuoso precision and overwhelming simplicity. When the spoken word is interrupted to give free rein to thought, what happens?

The text explores those moments when the things we're about to say ultimately remain within us, because they're too uncertain or too intimate to be shared. What happens on the way from thought to speech? In this sensitive study of thought laid bare, Camille Readman Prud'homme addresses the part of us that trembles when it comes to reaching out to others. Carried by the music of Léonie Pernet, this show invites us to plunge into our inner nights, where our intimacy can unfold.
