The Avignon festival gives pride of place to Africa, particularly within the framework of the RFI reading cycle. This Sunday, it is “Terre ceinte”, a text by the Senegalese author Mohammed Mbougar Sarr, Prix Goncourt 2021 which will be read in the very beautiful garden of Mons lulled by the song of the cicadas. Aristide Tarnagda, Burkinabe director and director of the Récréatrales festival in Ouagadougou directs the reading.
