Faced with the perpetuation of gender-based violence in the world of sport, the struggles of female athletes are now intertwined with those of other women. In turn Caryatids, soccer players, TV presenters, ordinary women or warriors, six performers focus on fragments of history to understand the links that are woven between the culture of sports as a spectacle and rape culture. In a performative relay game, Sportriarcat explores the evolution of the #MeToo movement towards a liberation of the body and the image. A sensitive, explosive and humorous work that invites the public to take a new look at our sports and media institutions.

Sportriarchate

Théâtre Périscope

Water has invaded the city. It seeps in everywhere, even to the stage of the theater where a precarious structure floats on which eleven girls and women, aged 5 to 70, choose to take refuge. Tremors, power outages, small and large collapses spin the plot of a cohabitation surrounded by catastrophe. However, between sisterhood and dissidence, the game invites itself. At the whim of metamorphoses sometimes worrying, sometimes joyful, the imagination of each one makes the absence of horizons drift. The water rises and with it the field of possibilities widens like so many grimaces at the rumbling threat.

It was through the unusual line "Do you like ice cream, duck?" that the novelist Simon Roy, at the age of 10, discovered The Shining , Stanley Kubrick's famous film adapted from a novel by Stephen King, in which an aspiring writer becomes the caretaker of an inhospitable hotel. The work became obsessive to him, among other things because it allowed him to absorb the turmoil of his own genealogy, which he claims is macabre. Kubrick's My Red Life , in an astonishing mise en abyme, redraws new lines of meaning.

My Life Red Kubrick

Théâtre Denise-Pelletier

Vernon Subutex 1, presented October 3 and 4 at Le Diamant, reveals a contemporary society of isolated, vulnerable humans and the vultures that have their eyes on them. It’s a society lacking nothing and everything and that no longer seems to have the choice between its destruction and its redemption. Parts 2 and 3 describe—with the same corrosive rancour—the development of a community around the central character, Vernon Subutex, who has become itinerant. Published in 2017, the last part was profoundly influenced by the 2015 Charlie Hebdo and Bataclan attacks in France. Literally explosive and post-apocalyptic, the novel ends in the near future of 2186. By then, the “Subutex” movement has become a sect that seeks, through transcendental music inspired by Alex Bleach, a communion between beings that goes beyond differences and identity-based issues.
