He had lobsters killed, women shaved, he needled the Church and threw out kilos of food over naked bodies. After that he led a National Theatre Centre in France. In 2018 he was at NEXT for the last time, with Pippo y Ricardo. Afterwards Rodrigo Garcia got a bit fed up with theatre. He writes a lot and stages a performance when he feels like it.

Now the Argentine who has already upended the contemporary art scene so often is back again. With him : three performers who completely ignore the theatre codes, a guitar that doesn't sound like a guitar and a title that refers to the omnipresence of Jesus.

Jésus est sur Tinder (Christ is on Tinder) brings actors together in a special universe with an iconoclastic musician and the figure of Jesus. Why is the latter involved ? Because according to García we take it for granted that he is always there. So here too. Judge for yourself about Jesus, a muddy cross-country motorcycle and a prepared guitar.
