CREATION / CIRCUS PERFORMANCE Angry self-portrait of an extraordinary artist-contortionist who’s decided to end her career. After Déversoir and J’aimerais pouvoir rire, two previous creations based on her family, Angela Laurier examines her life – for the last time – she says. From the visionary little girl to the teen singing star of Quebec, from the gifted gymnast paralyzed by the world of emotions to the virtuoso contortionist, Laurier tells all and gets even. Finished with family feuds, finished with contortionism, in L’Angela bête she puts her life on show with clarity and self-derision. It’s rock’n’roll heart and soul!
