Calenture n° 325 of Hypogeum

 

Jean Lambert-wild, artistic director of Comédie de Caen which performs in the festivals main programme, also creates small street happenings called Calentures. The one we experience at Waves invites us to attend the funeral of the clown.

The clown is brought to a pit in a coffin carried by his friends and with live music from Prins Jørgens Garde. The clown is happy. He sings, dances and throws confetti. The coffin is closed, deposited in a hole and covered. Yet we continue to hear the joyful singing of the clown, until he falls asleep ...
