This year’s edition of « Paroles d’acteurs », produced by ADAMI, showcases actor and director Marcial Di Fonzo Bo, who worked with Claude Régy and Rodrigo García in the past. Based on a workshop with young actors, he stages Push Up by the German playwright Roland Schimmelpfennig. The play explores the language and power wars of the corporate world, strangely echoing ancient tragedies.

The objective is to highlight the way in which the Mediterranean maritime space has been transformed into a militarized border zone.
Lawrence Abu Hamdan Zifzafa
Zifzafa, is an arabic word to describe a wind that shakes and rattles all in its path. Here, it becomes the title of a performance of artist and researcher Lawrence Abu Hamdan, that enmeshes sonic composition, video game engines and spoken word, to immerse us in the heart of a movement to resist green colonialism in the occupied Syrian Golan heights.
Alessandro Sciarroni U. (un canto)
A year after the premier of IRIS at the Butte-aux-Cailles swimming pool, commissioned by the Festival d'Automne, in which he explored the Italian polyphonic repertoire, Alessandro Sciarroni brings us U. (un canto). This music-based performance piece evokes the profoundly mysterious relationship between human beings and nature.

In 1947, the trial of German playwright Bertolt Brecht took place in the United States in front of the House Un-American Activities Committee (HUAC), responsible for combating communist activism. It was here that Brecht wrote a declaration which he was forbidden to read out. The minutes of the trial, as well as this declaration, constitute one of the axes of this exuberant show.
