Trương Chi

Trương Chi is a familiar legend of Vietnamese cultural memory: the story of a magnificent voice, an impossible love, and the distance between an imagined beauty and a real human being of flesh and blood.

The artists of the French Winterreise Compagnie Théâtre step into the Vietnamese imaginary to offer a sensitive, contemporary French reading of it. The legend crosses languages and changes breath, yet keeps its emotional core. This evening is neither a literal translation nor an outside gaze: it is an encounter, showing how a story rooted in one culture can become a shared space for artists and audiences of both countries.
