Philippe Genty is Acclaimed French master of theatrical fantasy and illusion. Compagnie Philippe Genty have been presenting inspired and original work that merges visual and physical theatre with dance and puppetry for the last twenty-five years.

“As everyone knows reality imitates illusion.

From illusion to reality, the Philippe Genty Company travels through a universe where absurd, derisive, cruel images fit into a method of association without narrative logic, as in a dream.

Images which rediscover old wounds, reawaken first fears, first desires and bear witness to our vertiginous within.

The Company won the Critics’ Prize at the Edinburgh festival for dance, though it isn’t only dance. It is theatre but a theatre without text. A theatre where the actor confronts material objects.

A physical confrontation which seizes and fixes in space man confronted with his own conflicts.

A theatre where man transcends his miserable condition to elevate himself to a dream of infinity."
