In 2013, Les Sélénites, led by Pascal Francfort, put on a play based on Louis Ferdinand Céline’s Voyage au bout de la nuit.
Les Sélénites / mise en scène, adaptation, tissage: Pascal Francfort / musique originale: Marc-Etienne Besson / équipe de création: François Revaclier, Lionel Haubois, Keyne Motte, Léo Piccirelli, Stéphane Blok, Emile Schaffner, Eric Lazor, Victor Hunziker, Sacha Bron, Corentin Perret-Gentil / administration: Patricia Méan dos Santos
After a first scene in an antechamber, the spectator was led to the main stage through a tunnel evoking the trenches of the war. There, the play continued with Francfort, Francois Revaclier and contrabassist Marc-Etienne Besson, immersed in music, sound effects, and projections.
With Sacha Bron and Lionel Haubois, we developed the live stage projections as well as a companion website.
Projections
The video content and some of the audio were prepared ahead of time and controlled from the lighting booth, timed on the performance of the actors and musicians. A single computer controlled the two projectors that covered the large stage.
