Play: ‘The Geopolitics of the Pea, Cartography 8’

15 Apr

2 Rue Milon, Théâtre municipal, 50200 Coutances

Theatre: “The Geopolitics of the Pea, Cartography 8” – Vertical Détour Or how the pea can save the world (food, the economy, soil, earthworms and rock and roll) It’s small, it’s round, it’s bright green and it could quite simply change the world… With a genome larger than that of Homo sapiens, the pea challenges us to rethink what we eat, our dietary choices, agricultural policies, soil conservation, the life of earthworms, human health and the entire global economy. It might even be capable of altering its behaviour and healing itself simply by listening to music! How can a living being so round, so small and so green bear the weight of all humanity’s hopes to such an extent? *The Geopolitics of the Pea* is the latest and eighth map in the *Atlas of the Anthropocene*, by the author, actor, director and geographer Frédéric Ferrer. On stage, the two actors take us on this madcap investigation – as well-researched as it is comical – in which detours are permitted and unexpected paths are explored… much to our delight! Suitable for ages 12 and over. 8.30 pm at the Coutances Municipal Theatre. Booking essential.
