NUIT ET SUSPENSE DANS LE THÉÂTRE DE JON FOSSE
NIGHT AND SUSPENSE IN JON FOSSE’S THEATRE

Summary/Abstract: Night and Suspense in Jon Fosse’s Theatre. In Jon Fosse’s dramatic work, the nocturnes occupy a particular place. Far away from the day’s order, a new sociality takes over the characters, opening extreme inner territories, like madness or death. The expansion of the dark and of the shadow zones is accompanied by numerous and varied disappearing and vanishing phenomena or strange metamorphoses. I propose an analysis of the techniques used by Jon Fosse in order to obtain nocturnal effects, incertitude states of mind and suspense games in his theater.
