Marionettes on bedside table.

Short form played in theatres or street.
The luminous adventures of a bedside lamp.
A mischievous tale for (electrified) string-puppets about the future of our daily objects and their programmed obsolescence.

Created and played by : Pierre-Yves Guinais

You might think that Monsieur Watt's daily life is only about lighting up a bedside table. Only that ? Not really. In between
It's about small pleasures, dreams, and wishes, rhythmed by the power switch.

But what future can a light bulb with such a fragile destiny have ?

With marionette, mask, and object repurposing, the amusing and poetic tale illustrates what becomes of our everyday objects.
