Young Audiences - "Monographie" Performance

A juggler, thousands of drawings, and a black-and-white world. With *Monographie*, Defracto transforms juggling into a living cartoon, brimming with physical humor and visual ingenuity.

In a space covered with hand-drawn sketches, Guillaume Martinet brings to life a world where objects seem to obey their own laws. Balls, movements, sounds, and gestures interact in a graphic composition that is as precise as it is unpredictable. Blending absurd virtuosity, obsessive repetitions, and breaks in rhythm, *Monographie* invents a form of juggling that resembles a live-action animated film.

For over fifteen years, the Defracto company has been developing a unique language that blends expressive juggling, physical humor, and choreographic composition. Accompanied here by director Yann Frisch, Guillaume Martinet creates a solo brimming with energy in which the body engages in a dialogue with drawing, music, and space. Conceived as much as a visual immersion as a performance, *Monographie* invites the audience to enter a world where everything becomes play, movement, and transformation. A jubilant, free-spirited, exuberant, and inventive new creation.
