A brother, a sister, a house. They do not go out. Their habits have turned into rituals. Regularly, strange noises resonate from a room within the gigantic house. The two inhabitants simply curse them. Over time, their living space invariably shrinks.  Inspired by a novel by Julio Cortázar, the Portuguese composer Vasco Mendonca and the English dramaturge Sam Holcroft plunge into the secrets of a couple. The main characters are interpreted by two singers, supported by a chamber music ensemble.

The Lille Opera invites the Lille public to discover the programming of its cultural partners from the MuzeMuse network. For these three dates, transport has been organized, departing from the Opera (reservations required; the number of places is limited).
