The Footprint

A drama

first episode: The Fall

First part of a creation in situ in four episodes corresponding to the four seasons: Autumn, Winter, Spring, Summer . For decor, the Castle, its park and the French garden.
A modern and urban family settles in the castle of Sallmard. Why this old house? Is it a real choice on their part or is it the house that chose them? Why this new start? They try to portray an ordinary family. But an unknown secret hangs over them.
For this family charged with the weight of a forgotten past, passed under silence, the installation in this castle also loaded with history will have cathartic effects on our protagonists. Each of the characters will be affected in a different way by this place.
Are the manifestations of the past harmful? Do they carry a message? Are the visions and appearances real or have our protagonists lost their minds? Hidden secrets will be revealed.
What imprints remain inscribed in man and in stone?
Show proposed by the Company the ORANGERYWriting and directing: Marianne Téton, performed by a team of professional actors.

He(It) had of it the pleasure only little time(weather), but its derivation, from Calignon, then from Chabrière and from Sallmard, lived the house until September, 1935, date in which the Chesneau family entered this house until our days. German Chesneau, grandmother of the current occupying of the castle, managed a reception centre for children then a medical educational institute within the castle until 1982\. During the Second World War, she saved one hundred and thirty-nine Jewish children of Nazi barbarism by hiding them among her residents. She(It) receives the medal of the Just men by the State of Israel for her(its) heroism and her(its) devotion.
