Creature Selvagge. The performance

A modern fable with a topical flavour: the planet must be saved and only those with less power seem to realise this.

Wild creatures are hybrid beings, half animal, half teenager: an endangered species. Or rather, creatures halfway between two endangered species.

The former often victims of 'human progress' that has made the world an unwelcoming place for them, the latter urged to grow faster and faster to meet the needs of the successful society.

Living with the adult human being who makes decisions for himself and the environment he inhabits has now become too big a problem: summoned by the crow, the wild creatures gather in assembly to address the issue. Amidst pitfalls, controversies, threats and discussions, each creature proposes a solution, a punishment, a lesson.

It is the story of all time, that of the search for balance between humans and nature. But what would happen if the wild creatures really disappeared?
