A True Thing

Inspired by the life of actress Ysanis Padonou, director Romain Gneouchev presents a poignant autofiction about early-onset Alzheimer's disease.

On stage, the actress faces alone the challenges of memory and identity, equipped with an earpiece ready to assist her in case of memory lapses. With great delicacy, she immerses the audience in human fragilities, blending theater and reality, intimate storytelling and social perspective.

The show weaves a deep reflection on universal themes: illness, grief, friendship, and transmission. Carried by the raw emotion of a sincere testimony and the power of performance, this intimate creation offers a theatrical experience that is both moving and profoundly human.
