Square spectacles
Roman Photo, by La Gran Reyneta
In 2005, « Roman photo » is performed by the Chilean company Gran Reynata over the direction of Jean-Luc Courcoult, coproduced with Royal de Luxe.
This show is actually the shooting of a Roman photo on a small square.
The ridiculous storyline, worthy cheesy love stories, gets crazy during the shooting and ends up in a real bloodshed.
Regarding the team, they take their work very seriously and are being the most inventive they can for the special effects “played it by ear” that they make with random materials
An aluminum frame is supposed to represent the picture taken by the camera.
The actors take their place behind the frame and start posing, just like the snapshots of a picture cadenced by the voice of the artistic director.
But the real show is somewhere else; it is in the backstage of the shooting, the dexterity and the poetic inventions of the technicians.
