"Sayin' ?" is an interdisciplinary solo project, mainly led by dancing, and including sounding, voice, words, puppets and objects theater. 

​

It takes roots into developemental trauma, questioning identity, psychic health, 'family' relationships, the reason to still live, and the ability to say.

​

It is an ongoing answer to incest and more broadly to 'sexual' violence as a systemic ritual and a encrypted score of our 'civilasation'. Ways to dis-play it, ways not to re-play it, ways to assert one's own agency to play. Kind of a counterspell that goes into a song. No final solution.

​

Extreme violence isn't the topic  (assumed 'resilience' neitheir). It doesn't need to be exposed as such : it can't be exposed - without replaying it. Yet it can't either stay silenced and denied from any representations. 

The topic is the mystery of this violence and its evidence, mixed with so many experiences and yet undermining them. So broadly shared, and actually so braodly not shared. The topic is having enough room to hear it and to still hear much more. Enough room for being 'dead' within it and still 'live'.  Enough sense of humour and enough gravity. Enough tenderness and enough merciless.

​

Dis-playing this score : déjouer cette partition.

​

Improvisation, interactions with the 'audience' and very structured material will interplay. 

​

First public interaction scheduled : june 2026 / Premiere scheduled : june 2028
