A little over thirty years ago, a character escaped from the Théâtre du Peuple in Bussang: the knife thrower from La Nuit au cirque , ashow by Olivier Py. A few clues allow us to follow his trail. A surname, Miss Knife; a time and a place, the night and the music hall;an age, invariable, because Miss Knife has always been sixty years old. Singer like Barbara, actress like Mistinguett, Miss Knife is also the old aunt in whom we confide. More than Olivier Py's double, Miss Knife is a conscience. A small voice that whispers in the ears of artists that we must always profess freedom so that each person can live their desires.
