With Encore, Eugénie Rebetez evolves within an enchanted world of acting. She gets to know the reverse side of the decor and looks into the abysses of illusion and reality. She is interested in a different ambivalence: that she is both a woman who speaks to her body and one who likes to speak her mind. She whirls across the stage and takes every freedom – also the freedom to fail. She does this with the most extreme physical commitment and devastating charm. One more time, Eugénie Rebetez swims against the stream of current trends and goes her own way : unswervingly, funny and cheeky.
