2 A potato monomaniac

Cenon. Behind oilcloth tablecloths, the old girl’s feet appear, planted in large checked Charentaise shoes. She invites the spectators to make a big puree together. Equipped with stewards, the public plays, laughs, responds and listens to this tuber monomaniac, passionate about “The Greatest Cabaret in the World”. Futile stories, subjective crosswords and failed demonstrations follow one another to slowly reveal the loneliness of this character. She involves the public in concocting a giant puree, while chatting, about everything but especially nothing.
