Transforming the Studio-Théâtre of the Comédie-Française into a recording studio and letting it resound with the “merry mayhem of rock”: this is the challenge taken up by Marie Rémond and the pensionnaire Sébastien Pouderoux.
In 1965, Bob Dylan wrote what would become one of the greatest rock songs of the 20th century, Like a Rolling Stone. Forty years later, the critic Greil Marcus devoted a book with the same title to Dylan, delving into the crazy adventure of the song’s composition: “Like a Rolling Stone was a masterpiece of skill, inspiration, will and determination; but despite all these elements, it was also an accident.” Through this book, Marie Rémond and Sébastien Pouderoux ponder the origins of artistic creation: doubt, chance, mystery and poetry, and “take stock of the difference between how we a imagine a masterpiece is created and the particular chaos of its creation”. In this production we discover the actors of Troupe as off-the-wall musicians and singers pampered by a legendary impresario whose career is coming to an end.
At the height of the American identity crisis during the Vietnam War, Dylan seemed to turn his rage into an existential questioning, “[he was] capable of seeing into the heart of things, the truth of things. Not metaphorically, in fact, but really seeing, like seeing into metal and making it melt.” Did he realise at the time that these six minutes thirty-four seconds of music would change the face of rock for all time?
