| From the press 2004 |
" The Orphée festival gives us a fine lesson in theatre. Go, take your seat and let yourself be carried away. You will leave thoroughly charmed and deeply impressed ". Versailles Magazine - sept. 04

" The art of movement, a source of creative inspiration - get your tickets now, it is truly wonderful ".
La Terrasse – sept. 04

" Versailles is glorious again as it welcomes the European festival of "Theatre and Disability". Orphée proves on stage that artistic spirit will shine through any physical or mental difference; it proves too that, in five acts and with a little music, it is possible to find a renewed sense of community, a remembered bond ".
La Nouvelle Vie Ouvrière – oct. 04

"Orphée sets the boards of the Montansier alight, as the theatre welcomes the 2nd European Festival of "Theatre and Disability". From Spanish dance to Molière's words and the wild sounds of a British dance troupe, the week unfolded in passionate style, with formidable technical skill mingling constantly with comedy.".
Panorama Magazine – oct.04.

" Above all else, these are artists... the companies hailing from Germany, Belgium, Spain, France, the UK and Holland enchanted us with the sheer quality of their work. ".
Action Sociale – oct.04

" Where difference is beautiful... Hailing from across Europe, the actors, dancers and musicians brought together for the second year of Orphée put their differences together for the benefit of all . The seven shows in which disabled and non-disabled artists collaborate offer us a surprising vision of all forms of disability, a view which could not be further from pity or voyeurism. Hats off!" ».
Madame Figaro – sept. 04

" This second festival highlights the work of actors and directors who have elected to accept and work with their disabilities. Each one is different, but all are artists of the theatre in their own right, and by presenting high quality work, they make their abilities and sensibility plain and contribute to the adjustment of attitudes ". La Croix – oct.04.
|
 |
" Not only is this festival an opportunity to see some great theatre but also to realise the true nature of disability and how short the gap between disabled and non-disabled people is. Audiences arrived with the hope of supporting and encouraging their fellow humans and left wondering about their own nature. So let these actors lead you into the world of art, since this oblique approach will spare you the cruelty of the naked truth ". France Catholique – 17 sept.04
