The Paris Tandem - Buenos Aires is implemented, in Paris, by the French Institute, the Town of Buenos Aires, with the support of the Ministry for Foreign Affairs and European, the Ministry for the Culture and the Communication and the Town hall of Paris.
“A work on time and silence”: this is how Romina Paula describes her latest production. Paula founded her company El Silencio in Buenos Aires in 2006. Freely inspired from Tennessee Williams’s The Glass Menagerie, the play revolves around four characters, all marked by suffering. Beneath the surface, the wounds of Argentinian history can be felt.

Have a good day! arises from the collaboration of Vaiva Grainytė, Lina Lapelytė, and Rugilė Barzdžiukaitė.

Mohamed Bourouissa, Zazon Castro Quartier de femmes
At the crossroads between theatre and stand-up, the first show by the visual artist Mohamed Bourouissa brings to the stage the different phases in the life of a woman in prison and its transformations. In the absence of pathos, the piece uses humour to circumvent the arduous nature of its subject matter.

Who is Diyaa Yamout, the Lebanese human rights activist, artist and blogger whose suicide shook the nation? We will never really know and this is not what matters. Indeed, what is far more fascinating here is the profusion of assorted reactions on Facebook, the television, and in the form of SMS and answering machine messages
