No singing at the table

A thinking mouth never stays silent.

• Synopsis

  No singing at the table?! Who said that? This remarkable object, a meeting place, a wall on its side, an insect’s ceiling, an upside-down floor, so often rectangular! What if a song helped us digest our food? Or even change our minds? We ask for permission as soon as we arrive, turn the rules upside down, and only leave the table when the song comes to an end. Because a mouth that thinks does not stay silent! And dessert is still to come, imagined, of course. A concert sung from all four corners… of the table.
