The show in creation : Une heure avant la mort de mon frère

In a prison visiting room, Daniel Keene delivers a moving love story between a brother and sister caught up in a family chaos that escapes them.

The story of a sister who holds her brother’s hand until the last moment, before handing over to her mother, lurking in the shadows, eternal witness of the whole family history. The presence… tick tock tick tock… of an unpredictable guard — the Time Master — and of this ceremony who can, at any moment, put an end to these farewells, keeps us in suspense and reinforces the mystery. Will they have time to tell each other the silence that unites them beyond death?

François Ebouele’s take on Daniel Keene’s play The Hour Before My Brother Dies.

Target audience: For children aged 12 and more
