    "Les Zoocrates" at the Opéra de Lausanne

    Animal and operatic silliness
    Libretto by Örs Kisfaludy

    New production Opéra de Lausanne with the participation of the students of Master Theater (world premiere)

    But...what on earth is a zoocrate? Is it some kind of learned animal, a zoological Socrates of sorts whose name is spoken with a lisp or even a stutter? A...Socratic animal? Why not! Doesn't the writer Eugène Ionesco declare so in his play Rhinoceros? : « All cats are mortal. Socrates is mortal. Therefore Socrates is a cat. » This is pure logic, isn't it? Indeed, but it would be even more (zoo) logical to think that a zoocrate is but the animal equivalent of a democrat. And zoocracy, the equivalent of democracy. 

    Örs Kisfaludy
