Crime et châtiment
Compagnie Karyatides
- Object theater
In keeping with its commitment to highlighting the major works of literature, Compagnie Karyatides is adapting Dostoyevsky's novel "Crime et châtiment" as object and musical theatre. Using its “poor” theatre, made up of reclaimed figurines and recycled music, it plunges us into the psychological torments of the hero Raskolnikov and the anatomy of a crime.
