Welcome to Avignon, which is hosting the great annual live performance festival for the 77th time. RFI, partner of the festival, has set up its studio there and all week long, we will make you experience the words and music, noises and colors of the Festival IN and the Festival OFF from a distance. For this first broadcast, the destinies of women hampered and marked by history and colonialism, and who dared to stand up and fight to be free and to be themselves.
Our guests today are:
- Emilie Monnet, for his piece daisy the fire on the stage of the Théâtre Benoit XII.
Reduced to slavery, Marguerite Duplessis is the first Aboriginal woman to start a lawsuit against the Quebec government. Émilie Monnet, author, actress, director and activist of Anishinabe origin brings back the dark times of colonization, patriarchy and arrangements between heirs.
- Joelle Sambifor his piece Blind Spots at the Theater des Doms, as part of the Festival Off d’Avignon.
With Angles Morts, the author and performer questions the possibility of community despite our irreconcilable oppositions. Using krump, electro music and boxing, she creates a show like a refrain, a mantra, a continuous struggle.
