A scratched curtain, a ransacked armchair, a battered little Christmas tree… From the very first seconds, it's clear that what happens here tends to fall apart or go wrong… The stage is set for Va falloir toujours toujours , a philosophico-pop show blending dance and theatre, flirting with the absurd and wreaking havoc on our perfectionist ideals.
Three artists come together to take on a challenge: representing the perfect family! Through short danced and acted scenes, they give it their all, under the watchful eye of a curious feline host who keeps score of the trials: be exemplary, never make mistakes. Mutual support, honesty, neatly folded laundry — a model family is the goal. But what, really, is a family? Who should do what to make it work? Va falloir toujours toujours offers an endlessly joyful reflection on performance, living together, and everyone's role within our households.
