Ficelle
This new musical is a modern take on the story of Greek mythology's Moires: Atropos, Lachesis and Clotho.
After angering Zeus, the sister goddesses who spin, measure and cut the life strings of every human on Earth, find themselves banished to a modern office tower in the mortal world, to continue their work.
One of them falls in love with a security guard and steals his life string, disrupting the natural order on Earth. Can the structure of the universe withstand it?
Fall in love with this amusing and touching work about fate, love and the imperfections that make us human.
