Diptych: The Missing Door and The Lost Room: dreamlike dance at Théâtre du Rond-Point

Théâtre du Rond-Point welcomes Peeping Tom with Diptych: The Missing Door and The Lost Room, from September 10 to 14, 2025. Renowned for its ability to blur the boundaries between disciplines, Peeping Tom invites audiences to a sensory immersion in a universe that oscillates between hyperrealism and pure fantasy. This choreographic diptych takes place in a closed, enigmatic space: an ocean liner where the characters seem haunted by their thoughts and caught up in emotional spirals as intimate as they are disturbing.

The scenography evokes a tangible place, yet opens onto shifting realities, nourished by desires, fears and obsessions. In this mental and physical journey, bodies transform, contort, resist or yield to the instability of the set and memories. The show is structured around two pieces: "The Missing Door", which explores the end of a world awaiting a passage to the afterlife, and "The Lost Room", which focuses on the reminiscences of an absent body.
