Seated at a table, actor Thierry Raynaud downs hundreds of glasses of vodka. Sip by sip, speech after speech, he delivers a stunning and uncompromising performance that embodies the power of the words contained in Kolik, a text as relentless as it is unforgiving. Thierry Raynaud, a cohort of Hubert Colas since 1994, exposes before our very eyes a rawness that probes deep within, uncovers intimacy, and dissects thought. Kolik is the final part of War, a triptych by contemporary German writer, Rainald Goetz. Author, director, and set designer, Hubert Colas celebrates theatrical writing in all its diversity. By choosing a clear, head-on approach, he directs all his research ultimately towards this public interaction.
