Francophonies Lea the urgency of the ecological fight in the

With “Léa and the theory of complex systems”, a major writing commission launched by the European Theater Convention has just celebrated its premiere at the Festival des Francophonies in Limoges. The play, finely researched and written by Luxembourg author Ian De Toffoli, tells two moving stories in parallel: a family saga built on oil and the violent awakening of a young woman confronted with the climate crisis.

Interview with Luxembourg director Renelde Pierlot who succeeds in very intelligently materializing the issues with voices and bodies on stage.
