One
dark night far far away Thomas Snout was born. Ever since, he collects
nights, capturing them with his bare hands, which is not an easy
task as obscurity is black and dirty and leaves traces. It is also
dangerous, as fears live in the night as fish live in the sea. Over
the years, Thomas Snout has collected 3845 nights, big and little,
with or without moonlight, starry or starless; nights of his own,
nights of others as well as a few that have been lent to him…
Seated on a crescent moon in the workshop of Thomas Snout, the famous
collector of nights, we are transported into shimmering, scary and
silent nights… with stars that listen to our whispers.
Using unusual objects and toys, the French actor Charlot Lemoine invites
each of us into his night-time world where a Mercedes Benz drives off
into the stars with a cat and a silk ballerina, while we listen to
Pedro’s mother telling him a bedtime story.
