Inter-School Scenography Project
Re Chicchinella - The Hen King
La Colline - National Theatre, 15 rue Malte Brun, 75020 Paris
Exhibition of models in the theatre hall from January 6 to 29, 2025, opening on Monday, January 6, 2025 at 7 pm

For about fifteen years, the inter-school scenography project has offered art and architecture students the opportunity to imagine the scenography of a play from the La Colline program.
From October to December 2024, students from the École supérieure des arts et techniques Hourdé, the École supérieure des arts appliqués Duperré and the architecture school ENSA Paris-La Villette worked about the play Re Chicchinella, text and directed by Emma Dante, freely inspired by Tale of Tales by Giambattista Basile, which is presented at the Grand Théâtre from January 7 to 29, 2025.
As every year as part of this educational partnership, the Master 2 students from ENSAPLV in Scenographie et architecture: de l’œuvre au lieu, were supervised by their teachers Mahtab Mazlouman, Jakob Gautel and Marco Dessardo. They benefited from the support of the scenographer Emmanuelle Roy, the actress Elena Borgogni and the technical team of the theatre.
The students developed 15 stage set models, exhibited in the theatre lobby from January 6 to 29, 2025.
With the ENSAPLV students Simon Achard, Najib Ait Lahcen, Lisa Amirat, Guillermo Arevalo Aucahuasi, Sabrine Belguasmi, Anouk Berger, Emilien Bouttier, Melina Delgado Loayza, Hacina Djaafri, Michael Duvan Galvis Marin, Mathias Goeman, Thibault Graves, Alexandre Humbert, Louise Le Sergent, Joseph Legrand, Cecilia Lindersson, Davide Mauro Memmola, Bruno Morales, Gabriel Nicosia, Maarten Op de Beeck, Maria Oudovitchenko, Sonia Pascal, Rémi Robert, Klelia Shpendi, Flore Slangen, Lou Soler, Eloise Vanholder, Tjil Verhoeven.
