It was played in the theatre Le Lucernaire (Paris) from January 29th 2020 to March 17th 2020.
The text took place in a boat during the 1930s in Russia where Anna, a fallen actress and soviet enemy, works as a maid. She meets Katia, a young actress full of hopes and dreams. They will link a friendship in the middle of the Soviet terror.
I designed costumes for this piece. Regarding to the budget and the timing, I chose to realize two costumes and buy the other silhouettes.”
Anna (Catherine Gandois)
The text took place in a boat during the 1930s in Russia where Anna, a fallen actress and soviet enemy, works as a maid. She meets Katia, a young actress full of hopes and dreams. They will link a friendship in the middle of the Soviet terror.
Anna is full of mysteries she hides, that’s why I chose to work on a blouse with different kinds of pockets.
The pin is hand painted and she wears an oversize coat inside which I created different hidden pockets.
Katia ( Sarah Jane Sauvegrain)
Katia had a lot of silhouettes, so I chose to realize one: the nightgown. The silk nightgown is second-handed, I dyed it blue.
The nightgown is made out of linen. It shows her humble social status, but also her youth and boldness by keeping the ornamental codes from the 1930s.
