Nuit Double by Esther Teillard – Cécile Guilbert et Bertrand Burgalat
Is excess a roundabout form of melancholy? Is extravagance inherently sad? How do you make a libertine laugh?
For this new Double Night event, Esther Teillard will welcome Cécile Guilbert, writer, essayist, journalist, literary critic, and Bertrand Burgalat, producer, musician, composer, arranger, singer, around the following theme: Excess and Melancholy.
Nuit Double is a space for free exchange between two personalities. It questions and probes without pretense — desires, limits, truth, taboos, seduction — blending and doubling, confronting two gazes, two visions.
Once a month, at 10 p.m., two guests meet there. From a chosen theme, they write a story that is built together. They add and superimpose their horizons, their differences, their intuitions. Duel or duo, conversation, confrontation, Nuit Double is an ode to dialogue, an escape.
Esther Teillard puts the word back at the center, free, raw, and alive. She breaks down the barriers between the arts, intertwines thoughts, in a reinvented night.
