Nobody picks up my tongue

“Nobody picks up my tongue” is a two-voice incantation in the form of a wandering performance led by singers/performers Chloé Bieri and Lisa Tatin. Set against a backdrop of light and video, the two singers set to music and stage authors’ poetic texts: Lisette Lombé, Laura Vazquez, Stéphanie Vovor, Cécile Coulon.

“Nobody picks up my tongue” embodies questions of gender, class and race, dismantles models, and questions the enslavement of living, particularly the way we look at animals.

Schoß Company is a platform for contemporary theatrical research in which music, light and video are in close dialogue. The worlds of Lisa Tatin (lyric singer and performer) and Simona Gallo (video/light designer) come together.

In 2019 Schoß Company invites contemporary composer André Décosterd, cellist Anne-Charlotte Dupas and the Schola de Sion to collaborate on the creation of a hybrid opera: “MY:R:NINEREST, il est un œil qui ne dort jamais”. In 2020, the collaboration continues with composer André Décosterd for “LAB_21 mon corps n’obéit plus”, with percussionist Till Lingenberg and poet Laura Vazquez for the creation of “J’ai plié ma langue”.

For the 2024 season, Schoß Company created “Personne ne ramasse ma langue” at Fondation Opale in Lens, a two-voice incantation (with Chloé Bieri) wandering through the audience, and “Que perdons-nous à gagner du temps?” at the Théâtre Les Halles in Sierre in November, a theatrical/musical performance for two actresses (Danae Dario and Monica Budde) and a percussionist (Luc Müller).
