Lumpen of love is a sonorous and literary investigation, embodied on stage by the figure of the depressive jester. If the voice of melancholy is monochord, atonal and even silent, the voice of the jester presents an infinite spectrum of expressive forms. What happens when the vocal and verbal freedom of the jester suffers the consequences of melancholy?
