Warm and touching, this play tells the story of a piece of magical paper.

Papirus is dedicated to all those who never stop dreaming. In the middle of nowhere, a man, walks, alone, tired, and his only companions are a large suitcase and a big piece of paper. In the middle of nowhere, a woman, weakened, looks for a place to sleep. Soon, each of them will discover the presence of the other.

How should we react to a stranger? Do we choose to become complicity or else look threateningly at the other? How to convey our own intimacies and dreams? How to overcome our fears of the past? Without any words, through gestures, shapes and painting, these two foreigners speak and establish a game full of curiosity, generosity and hope where sharing becomes a way of communication. This is a show about the magic that comes when we allow ourselves to communicate with the heart.
