Je reviens de loin Claudine Galea | | | | Camille, a wife and mother of two children, has left. Back at the house they wonder about it and talk to her. She answers. She’s there. Who’s there? Who left? Je reviens de loin traces the troubled border between imagination and reality. What’s true? The facts or the path you go down as you experience them? The story is told through several voices, a narrative, dialogue, songs, dreams and a chorus, and through those voices a strange conclusion comes about. |
| ‘‘Claudine Galea is highly inventive. Je reviens de loin is written like a musical score with a prelude, impromptus, and first second and third movements. Furthermore, the playwright states that if there is to be a piano on stage (music is the daughter Lucie’s refuge), then it should be transparent. The play is constructed in a very particular, scattered way, with voices answering each other in snatches, songs sung, dialogue interrupted by interior monologues, and neighbours exchanging points of view – a whole world of voices trying to make the invisible visible.’’
Laurence Cazaux in Le Matricule des Anges
