“Désirs parade“ directed by Philippe Genty. It was premiered on 1986. NOTE! My apologaze for realy bad video quality! Never released on DVD. Philippe Genty is one of the worlds greatest Theatre persons. In 40 years, he has staged his shows across the 5 continents, and in all the worlds biggest countries. Philippe Genty's theatre is a blend of dance, music, puppetry and magic. In this refined world that recalls the poetry of Magritte paintings, scenes follow in succession as in a dream. There isnt just one story, there are thousands, and each spectator has his or her own. The Philippe Genty Company: It was in 1961 that Philippe Genty created his first puppet show: Expédition Alexandre and imagined his first world tour in a modest 2CV Citroen car (that was very popular in France). 7 years and 47 countries later, Philippe Genty created the company that bears his name, along with Mary Underwood. He performed at the Olympia and the Casino de Paris with Zizi Jeanmaire and Roland Petit and then toured the United States, the United Kingdom, Japan, Australia and Africa. In 1976, he performed for the first time at the Théâtre de la Ville in Paris before flying to Asia and Oceania. The company participated in the major international festivals: Hong-Kong, Perth, Sydney, Adelaide, Wellington, Madrid, Moscow; Broadway and the US in 1981, and China in 1982! In 1992, the company was in Latin America with the famous tour Cargo 92 along with Royal de Luxe, Philippe Découflé and Mano Negra (Manu Chao). Each show earned international acclaim (in Europe, USA, Asia, India, Middle East) and also in France: Dédale was performed in the Cour dhonneur - the main stage - of the Avignon Festival in 1997. From 1968 to 2004, the company created and performed around 10 shows the world over. In 2005, Lands End was created. The last show is called Boliloc, and was created in 2007
