Lac artificiel

Laura and Salomé are inseparable. One Saturday night in the middle of summer, the two teenage girls walk along the county road at the edge of the forest, looking for a place to party. With only the fluorescent road markings to guide them, they search for their way. Out in the night, drifting toward their memories in a world that’s spinning, they witness their own downfall and the crumbling of their relationship.

In this play, Marine Chartrain explores the pivotal moment that is adolescence—its instability, its turmoil, and its transformations. The author crafts lively dialogue and skillfully anchors monologues in concrete situations with great dramatic impact.
