Written and performed by the students of Studio 7 at the École du Nord, Tragédie is a theatrical fresco imagined as a passing of the baton between generations. This drama school, directed by David Bobée, has for several years been encouraging a committed approach to theater, combining collective writing and contemporary staging. Under the direction of Bobée and director Éric Lacascade, this creation marks the end of the actors' curriculum and the birth of a new artistic voice.

The show 's starting point is striking: a plane has crashed, leaving behind a smoking hull. But far from recounting a simple aerial tragedy, Tragedy seizes on this image to explore another, larger and more insidious catastrophe: that of a world in crisis, bequeathed to a generation that must reinvent its foundations. Through a fragmentary text and collective performances, the sixteen young actors promise to deliver a plural and committed look at the environmental, social and political issues shaping our times.

With Tragédie, David Bobée and Éric Lacascade continue their work on writing for the stage, a method in which the text is constructed in direct interaction with the acting and staging. This collaborative process enables actors to fully embody their own questioning and express their vision of the world with authenticity.
The play is aimed at audiences aged 14 and over, and offers an intense 2h40 immersion in a collective reflection on the future. Between anger, hope and inventiveness, it aims to bear witness to the vitality of a young generation that is speaking out to reimagine the world in its own way.
