Au Cardinal Borgne

Raoul Lambert

Music, magic, and mentalism

Sun. 26 Jan. to Fri. 7 Feb.

Different locations

30 minutes Ages 10 and up

By recreating an imaginary historical setting, Raoul Lambert offers a new showcase in a new context for old-fashioned magic. Equipped with a revolutionary acoustic sound system and oversized seating, Le Cardinal Borgne is a theater on wheels designed to offer the world the craziest of gifts: the suspension of disbelief and the reinvigoration of dreams as a weapon of intellectual self-defense. Magic, illusion and the thrill of the impossible right in your own neighborhood!

Performances organized as part of the R.I.R. network’s season.

Biography

Mathieu Pasero founded the Compagnie Raoul Lambert in 2009 with a comedic, magical, and absurd solo show. Since then, the company has continued to forge an intimate relationship with audiences, humorously evoking our natural propensity for credulity and manipulation while exploring our relationship with power. Blending mentalism, illusionism, theater, and circus, the Compagnie Raoul Lambert is a hybrid cultural phenomenon well worth discovering.
