In “CAPRA (a goat)”, Jeanne Candel and her collaborators invite us to step inside the belly of a poetess, just as one might enter the hidden and fragmented landscapes of creation. We dive into her chaos using theater as a vast experimental laboratory where everything flows between music, machinery, poetry, the bodies of the actors and actresses, costumes, and set design.

The artists alternately become storytellers, stagehands, and performers, composing a heterogeneous, handcrafted palace of memory – a blend of the stories that shape us, ancient myths, and echoes of the world around us – playing with the power of imagination and the paths of recollection.

CAPRA (une chèvre) is supported by Onassis AiR within the framework of Prospero Platform, co-funded by the European Union. The work premiered at the 80th Festival d'Avignon in July 2026.
