Le Chateau Dresses 2010

David Lescot - The pressure instrument (Theatre des Abbesses - November 26, 2010)

A show floating between jazz and theater, a clash between Jacques Bonnaffe and Médéric Collignon, the idea was very attractive, and attracted enough world for that additional meetings are quickly taken to 18h. Except that since then, Collignon herniated disc was forfeited, and such a personality is simply not replaceable on the track.
Not that his replacement Virgil Vaugelade demerit particularly : You can not ask him to have the same charismatic intensity, the same disproportion extrovert that Collignon. But suddenly, the show is certainly not what was thought David Lescot and Véronique Bellegarde.
history: a "bagpipe blower" who wants to rub the Jazz meets a professor who teaches him the breath and some ABCs, is confronted with other musicians in clubs Jam, falls for a bass fascinated that time gets scared and runs away, and radicalized in a Free search of all that away.
The staging consists of a series of tables, sometimes music, fades, commented by actors / musicians (drummer Philippe Gleizes usual Collignon, trumpeter and guitarist David Lescot, Llorca Odja singing and miming the bass) in a kind of voice polyphonic. There are also video, created / manipulated live by Olivier Garouste. There
of humor (the viewer who wants at any price that he plays "The Lion Sleeps Tonight"), emotion (the first night between the hero and the bassist), beautiful moments ( Club Jam seen as a boxing ring), but the lack Médéric madness, and everything suddenly becomes a little bland, not really missed, but without much interest.
