Pastille Opera
Musical drama
Opéra Pastille is a musical black widow who ingests her audience by liquefying their organs after listening.
Christophe Imbs and David Noir compose the two mandibles, leaving the spectators to mutate into pairs of legs as soon as the thread reaches its end.
Ultimately, this is the story of a woman who prefers to think of her tumor as a pregnancy.
Pastille is attached to the radiator in Esther's apartment. It is so named because of the small round disc, as big as a coin, which appeared after its birth at the place of an embryo of atrophied arm, which soon dried and fell. From the small round spot that became fibrous, developed over the years the claw that today serves as his arm. Thus equipped, it clings to the facts and gestures of Esther's life, forced to adopt it by force of circumstance.

Esther
Alligator clip
Bite of your hand annihilates me
Of ecstasy and torment
Sure death, your child's embrace
Crustacean lullaby of my body's movements
Veinous voluptuousness your charming forehead falls asleep
Unruly Crab
Fruit on my feverish insides
Integumentary acid
Secure the hold of your teeth
Crustacean lullaby will sway my fate
Veinous voluptuousness with which my soul restores itself

Pastille, Pastille, bitter pill, swallowed whole, deserves my ordeal
Mother, Mother! We are here!

Small piece of a pharmaceutical paste
Pastille Opera is a difficult thing to swallow. The timing and frequency of taking the medication, as well as the way in which it is taken, are essential instructions to follow.
What should I do if I miss a dose?
Do not take a double dose to make up for the single dose you forgot to take.
What to do if you take more than the recommended dose or if you take it accidentally
Always contact the nearest commission or institution for advice on risk and action.
What to do in case of poisoning?
Plug your ears and breathe slowly into your mask.
