Requiem des innocents
by Louis Calaferte
2017.01.25
The first book by Louis Calaferte, published in 1952, Requiem des innocents, is a story of learning the hard way, carried by a particularly powerful language. This visceral book left its mark on Virginie Despentes, who proposes a vibrant stage adaptation, in close collaboration with Zëro, a prospective and abrasive rock group. Not a musical reading, but setting the voices and the bodies to music, thanks to which Requiem des innocents redounds on stage with all of its original brilliance.
