A Vanished Kingdom

Lost kingdoms and frozen conflicts, melting pots and museum pieces, grey areas between the black and white of competing nationalisms… Welcome to Marchland, Théâtre Volière’s ongoing project programming and creating performance and interdisciplinary events from and about Europe’s borderlands.We are an Anglo-French theatre and production company from Strasbourg, capital of Alsace; Europe’s crossroads, and one of its many borderlands with a rich and turbulent history.Marchland is our response to the crises of identity currently sweeping Europe. For the next three years we are creating, programming and commissioning a series of events in central London, in which many traditions can come together and ask: What can the voices from Europe’s liminal spaces, past and present, tell us about what it means to be European today?

MARCHLAND

A Vanished Kingdom will be the closing event for Theatre Voliere’s Marchland 2018, and we want to create a small tradition of our own to mark the occasion: Each year, we’ll be asking one of our performers to close the season by singing Gottingen, by Barbara. This year it will be the multi-talented Audrey L’Ebrellec, from La Soupe’s Evocation. It’s often said that the song Gottingen did more to aid the post-war reconciliation between France and Germany than any speech by a politician. It’s a beautiful, heartbreaking, hopeful song, and Audrey’s interpretation of it will make a fitting finale to Marchland.
