Coeur avec les doigts
What is love? The butterflies in your stomach, the stars in your eyes, a boy/girl? Like in fairy tales or movies, like we’re taught as children? In a white, enveloping space, four friends in search of meaning explore their life experiences and share their relationship with love. Where does their irresistible desire to love come from? How can we escape from sugary romance? Is there a difference between love and friendship? How do we separate well? And finally, how can we love better? The rainbow brigade thus shares its questions and resolutions to let the mysterious, plural forms of love emerge.

Enora Boëlle
Director, actress, writer, and co-founder of le joli collectif, Enora Boëlle holds a Master’s degree in directing and dramaturgy from Paris X. Her projects are a blend of creating performances and artistic collaborations with venues (Théâtre de Poche, Hédé-Bazouges between 2010 and 2019, and in 2023-2024 at Théâtre l’Aire Libre in St-Jacques de la Lande). Since 2016, her solo career has included several creations that mix storytelling and autofiction, theatricality and choreography. This solo work pauses with Cœur avec les doigts (2024), co-written with MarDi (Marie Dilasser). All of these performances are still touring and connect with each other in meaningful ways. A new version of Moi, canard, translated into French Sign Language (LSF) and in dialogue with a dancer, is planned for the fall of 2025, as well as a return to solo work exploring lineage, masculinities, and Drag King with a new project: Pour qui danse Marlon Rando?. This creation is scheduled for the 2026-2027 season.
