Mascarade (Masquerade) is a live audio-visual performance in which two actors on stage use the audio from all-news shows in real time to construct an instantaneous musical drama of 30 minutes. Riffing on contemporary television news shows, the busts of  two anchor people appear in video on a large screen at the back of the stage. Thanks to a program developed specifically for the perfomance, these busts, whose forms and movements we see processed and broken down, serve as musical instruments, with loops, filters, sampling, etc., following principles of mashup and plunderphonics. With the succession of the live reports, the two anchors transform the flow of information, their content, their musicality, their timbres, their rhythms, to give them a new form, a new musical dramaturgy.
Mascarade brings a distanced, critical, joyous and anguished look at the media as instruments of manipulation.
