Montreal. 1976. Nadia Comaneci, a 14-year-old Romanian gymnast, turns codes and representations on their head. She becomes the image of perfection.
The narrator of the novel imagines the life journey of this “icon”, exploring all the possibilities of the fiction. Her character flits from East to West, a media object revealing the complexity of the gazes and tests a woman must face in the journey to become herself. In this investigation for three voices in search of Nadia C., an emblematic, mysterious and fascinating figure, the actresses will be directed by Chloé Dabert whose show Orphelins (Orphans) was a prize-winner at the Impatience festival of emerging theatre in 2014 co-organised by Télérama, the Théâtre du Rond-Point and the CENTQUATRE-PARIS.
