Where do playing cards come from? How did they end up here? Why do they feature queens, kings, and jacks? Did you know that playing cards have names? That they were burned en masse, just like witches? The person standing there teaches us that we shouldn’t ask, “What are playing cards?” but rather, “Who are the playing cards?” With Je suis 52, Claire Chastel and Camille Joviado invite us to reconsider our relationship with living beings and objects; they immerse us in an intense love story where the cards come to life and take on physical form. Through magic tricks and words, the audience connects with the cards, with Claire, and with one another for an intimate and magical moment—sensitive and gentle, surprising and passionate. Suspense guaranteed!
