Heptameron
Screened images for Benjamin Lazar's show, imagined from the Renaissance masterpiece left unfinished by Marguerite de Navarre.
After Traviata / You Deserve a Better Future, Benjamin Lazar returns to the Théâtre des Bouffes du Nord with a theater-music creation inspired by The Heptameron by Marguerite de Navarre, itself drawn from Decameron. Stories told by a group confined by storms become a fluid stage form where narration turns into embodiment. Madrigals by Claudio Monteverdi, Luigi Rossi, and Carlo Gesualdo weave through the piece, creating a shifting space between eras, voices, and imagination.
