Considered as a transgressive narrative, Bluebeard is a wonderful reading to tell how the wounds of the past come to hinder the present and our desire to be saved by the other.

Taking the work of Charles Perrault as a starting point, the new creation of Sarah Baltzinger and the musician Guillaume Jullien illustrates the way in which our interpersonal relationships are exercised, between hedonism and fascination for danger.

Through a contemporary aesthetic inspired by the Baroque and a wedding between sound and gesture, the two artists explore links that weave and dissolve to lead into a reflection on our antinomic desire for belonging and freedom, attachment and emancipation.

This creation is the second part of a research on inheritance and transmission.
