Before becoming a tree

BEFORE BECOMING A TREE is a tragicomedy where we discover the imaginary course of ADA who, after hitting a snag, will slowly lose the use of her precious hands. Exploring the theme of illness, the show takes a poetic approach to childhood resilience, through playful tableaux combining image theatre and object theatre. In our delivery truck transformed into a space that could be a workshop or even a hospital room, the spectator follows ADA across a range of emotions – from the announcement of her diagnosis to its acceptance.
