"Personal development" is cool. And behind this word which is somewhat like a "grab bag", the best and sometimes the worst. The young actress Olivia Carrère (Life: Reset, show for which she has received the prize for best female newcomer at the critic's award in 2011) has chosen to seize this very contemporary theme through the many coaching voices that implicitly allow to address essential concepts such as individual success, the meaning of work, the pursuit of happiness ... based on readings and different kinds of research, she has created a one-woman show, both in movement and multidisciplinary (texts, songs, projections), visual and poetic, narrative and musical.
In our society in crisis, where individualism reigns supreme, where the 'self' outrageously dominates, where the dogmas have partially been smashed to smithereens, "personal development" appears like a "new religion» in some circles, observes Olivia Carrère who has therefore decided to examine the techniques of coaching appearing either in the form of individual coaching or sometimes therapy. With, in the background, issues relating to ethics, the protection of privacy, the emancipation of the individual ...
A show in the form of a play-performance in which the actress sets up a very personal universe that is essentially based on a musical genre that she qualifies as "Electro pop nostalgic" with electronic bass sounds, retro organs, drum machines, a hint of "vintage" sound ... Olivia Carrère's compositions arranged by Yannick Franck, which bring a fresh and generous color to this free chronicle about "personal development". A show that brings us directly face to face with the ultra modern, its realities and quirks.
