Pépito Matéo
Forgetting one’s keys and wandering through a city at night offers a chance to glimpse behind the scenes of the theater of reality. In this space, daydreams mingle with nocturnal ghosts and the strangeness of appearances.
Pépito Matéo chooses to turn this hardship into stories, finding a path to freedom through imagination. He embraces vulnerability—and fear too—by taking a step aside, giving words a chance to redeem themselves through humor, poetry, and dreams.
A storyteller for modern times, Pépito Matéo brings us a performance born of a sleepless night. Armed with words and tales, he dissects our world with contagious energy. An explosive catharsis to exorcise our frustrations and awaken our consciousness.
The night is an orphanage for awakened dreamers who long for life to rise! It sparkles with brilliance and hope.
Pépito Matéo
A modern-day storyteller, Pépito Matéo brings us a show born of a sleepless night. Armed with words and stories, he dissects our world with infectious energy. An explosive catharsis to exorcise frustrations and awaken consciousness.
Pépito Matéo is a word trickster—a joyful madman, chatty and alight—who forges his own path through the forest of contemporary imagination. His sharp tongue dances between humor and poetry to strike straight to the heart.
In his theater, the madness of the world unfolds with a saving lightness, a jubilant wanderlust of words that nourishes and brings meaning.
