"...Veitch is more engaging with each passing minute...a completely different side unfolds in a person you thought you had pegged..."

the barefoot review

“… with the same meticulous research he has put into his books on wartime aviators (ed. FLAK), Veitch fleshes out a tale of courage and tragedy and brings it to life with drama, passion and detail.”

Jeff Maynard, NewsMail

For 18 minutes Alain Moreau excites us with his delicious thriller, reaching a height of comic trashiness that rivals Tarantino. (…) Existential questions follow and a terrible battle of egos as tyranny sets in. (..)
It’s sheer madness, clever, brilliant!

Catherine Makereel, Le Soir (Belgium, National newspaper)

The writing of this show is dense, rich in discoveries, with never a dull moment. The madness, while contained in the beginning, builds to a crescendo and reaches a literally explosive finale. A must.

A. Deb. L’Avenir (Belgium, National newspaper)

sweet home - Collectif Arbatache

Production Manager, Lighting designer, lighting, sound and AV operator

2016

The show was played 30 times in Brussels, Belgium.

Actors: Ahmed Ayed, Bruno Borsu, Julie Dacquin, Martin Goossens, Zoé Janssens, Ilyas Mettioui, Mathilde Mosseray, Camille Sansterre et Corentin Skwara

Scenography: Thomas Delord

Lighting design: Bao Ghislain Ngouansavanh

Technical operator and coordinator: Bao Ghislain Ngouansavanh

Costumes design: Mathilde Glorian

Video content creator: Yoann Stehr

Sweet Home is a crepuscular show halfway between hope and despair (…). Collectif Arbatache chose to work its new show without director. Successful bet.
At different levels, acts are moving in a dreamlike atmosphere. Sound and lighting are supporting the poetic chiaroscuro of the show speaking about modern preoccupations.

Piccoli Sentimenti - Tof Théâtre

Production Manager, touring lighting and sound operator, custom lighting fixtures maker, assistant set builder

2012-2016

The show was performed worldwide more than 600 times, in Belgium, France, Canada, Reunion Island, Italy, Spain, Germany, The Netherlands, Switzerland and Luxembourg.

A show without words for an audience of age 3 and up, drawing its inspiration from the world of Antonio Catalano.

It all began when Flavia Armenzoni, the Director of the Teatro Delle Briciole (Italy), presented the idea to Alain Moreau, Artistic Director of the Tof Theatre (Belgium). The idea took form, following a series of improvised experiments with a little puppet and seeing them evolve within the setting of miniature wooden constructions and strange towers in Antonio Catalono’s workshop, the creator of Sensitive Worlds...

Show dreamed up by Antonio Catalano and Alain Moreau.

Script, puppetry and directing: Alain Moreau

Artistic accompaniment: Antonio Catalano

Scenography: Alain Moreau, along the lines of an original idea instigated by Antonio Catalano

Creation of the soundscape, musical instruments and musical score: Max Vandervorst

- Winner of “Coup de Coeur” by the press (Rencontres de Huy - August 2012).

An actress is manipulating a puppet while a musician creates a soft atmosphere on unusual music instruments from a wild and raw lute-making. An artistic collaboration between a plastic artist, a musician and Tof Théâtre, issuing a jewel of sensibility and subtlety.

Françoise Sabatier-Morel, Télérama (France, national newspaper)

 

Here is a precious moment which reunites us all, youngs and grown-ups, around a miniature landscape which will reveal progressively its mysteries.

Dominique Duthult, France Inter (France, national radio)
