Arnold


and the ballistic attempt



Between physical comedy, circus

and theatre of objects.

 

Arnold proposes a scientifoolish

experience with an absurd and apparently

fundamental invention. He is a mad inventor,

a delirious professor. Meticulousness

and clumsiness combine with a love of risk.

SYNOPSIS

He comes out of the garage carrying a suitcase. 
He has chosen his destiny, change the course of things.
Today he pulls out all the stops, his scientific genius, his talent as
a handyman, his strength, his agility, his charm ... what an artist.

Arnold offers us a pataphysical experience
around an absolutely indispensable invention.
Meticulosity, clumsiness and a certain taste for risk push him
further and further in his experiments. From crazy ideas
to series of disasters, from organized chaos to domino effects,
he is pursued by a constellation of balls, which bounce to the
outer limits of his experience.
This multilingual Luxembourger projects himself on
the international stage by mumbling his invectives in
several languages, without giving importance to any of them.
Children, women and men love him, for different reasons. PS: Through rigorous training and a specific diet, he can
play indoors and outdoors, in almost any space and
conditions.

 

 

Pataphysics *: A term created in 1894 by Alfred Jarry to
