RIP

A must-see.
Word of mouth amongst theatre professionals at the 2025 Avignon Festival quickly spread the praise for this funny, inventive, zany, poetic, farcical and incredibly imaginative show, brought to life by a troupe of young performers driven by a visceral and infectious enthusiasm!
Very loosely based on Leo Tolstoy’s *The Death of Ivan Ilyich*, *RIP* is a wild fantasy about the meaning of death, and therefore of life. With humour, the Collectif Attention Fragile tackles the question of our relationship with our mortal condition, our illusions of omnipotence, spirituality, ritual and memory.
