Alphonse is 14 years old; he has disappeared; he is lost, walking along a country road he is confronted to the most meaningful experience of his life: the invisible. He is weaving an intricate web of stories, while everyone is searching for him: parents, friends, teachers, the police. What they find is the thing we often give up in order to grow up.
Written by Wajdi Mouawad, directed by Alon Nashman with additional choreography by Chartier, Alphonse is a tour de force for the solo performer. Learn more about the Theaturtle production here
