\u00ab Jerk \u00bb est une reconstitution imaginaire \u00e9trange, po\u00e9tique, dr\u00f4le et sombre des crimes perp\u00e9tr\u00e9s par le serial killer am\u00e9ricain Dean Corll, qui, avec l\u2019aide de deux adolescents, David Brooks et Wayne Henley, a tu\u00e9 plus d\u2019une vingtaine de gar\u00e7ons dans l\u2019\u00e9tat du Texas au milieu des ann\u00e9es 70.<\/p>\n
Dans la pi\u00e8ce, David Brooks purge une peine \u00e0 perp\u00e9tuit\u00e9. En prison, il apprend l\u2019art de la marionnette qui lui permet en quelque sorte de faire face \u00e0 ses responsabilit\u00e9s quant \u00e0 sa participation aux crimes. Il a \u00e9crit une pi\u00e8ce qui reconstitue les meurtres de Dean Corll, utilisant des marionnettes pour interpr\u00e9ter tous les r\u00f4les. Il pr\u00e9sente son spectacle en prison pour une classe d\u2019\u00e9tudiants en psychologie d\u2019une universit\u00e9 locale.<\/p>\n
La violence et l\u2019humour du texte obligent \u00e0 une repr\u00e9sentation o\u00f9 l\u2019\u00e9clat de la violence transpara\u00eet. La forme du th\u00e9\u00e2tre de marionnettes \u00e0 gaines en castelet a d\u2019ailleurs \u00e9t\u00e9 traditionnellement con\u00e7ue pour l\u2019interpr\u00e9tation de sujets violents et transgressifs. En effet, \u00ab Jerk \u00bb m\u00eale sans complexes sexualit\u00e9 et violence, s\u2019inscrivant en ce sens dans la lign\u00e9e des textes interpr\u00e9t\u00e9s dans le r\u00e9pertoire de la marionnette \u00e0 gaine.<\/p>\n
L\u2019histoire aussi r\u00e9aliste soit-elle, semble \u00e0 la limite de l\u2019irr\u00e9alisme. Le r\u00e9alisme apparent de la pi\u00e8ce vient, outre sa narration lin\u00e9aire, du fait que la pi\u00e8ce se fonde sur une histoire vraie, et que le marionnettiste et le bonimenteur sont interpr\u00e9t\u00e9s sans aucune distance quant \u00e0 ce qui pourrait \u00eatre le personnage de David Brooks.<\/p>\n
\u00ab Jerk \u00bb, s\u2019inscrit comme une synth\u00e8se des trois pi\u00e8ces r\u00e9alis\u00e9es en collaboration avec l\u2019\u00e9crivain am\u00e9ricain Dennis Cooper, \u00ab I Apologize \u00bb (2004), \u00ab Une belle enfant blonde \u00bb (2005) et \u00ab Kindertotenlieder \u00bb (2007). Les liens entre fantasmes et r\u00e9alit\u00e9 sont sans cesse r\u00e9interrog\u00e9s dans ces trois pi\u00e8ces et notre perception du r\u00e9el y est donc constamment d\u00e9plac\u00e9e. \u00ab Jerk \u00bb, plus r\u00e9aliste, t\u00e9moigne \u00e0 travers une narration coh\u00e9rente et lin\u00e9aire, de la cr\u00e9dibilit\u00e9 que ce type de forme induit de mani\u00e8re incontestable. Et c\u2019est cet aspect incontestable qu\u2019il s\u2019agit de remettre en question au travers de nos diff\u00e9rentes exp\u00e9riences.<\/p>\n
