Questions of fire

Le Senghor - Centre Culturel d’Etterbeek, Brussels
€8–13
After the warm welcome from the public received in February, we have the pleasure of reviving the play "Questions de feu". "What is this life? What does it want from me? What is this appointment on this earth? That's why I wrote, I questioned myself, I spoke, can you imagine, I did nothing but that! And I can tell you that I still don't have any answers. I only came to pose these fiery questions with you." Christiane SINGER The temptation in this chaos we are living in would sometimes be to stay in one's cave and wait for it to pass. And yet, something pushes us to get out of there. Christiane Singer speaks of the necessity of commitment in a life. But what commitment? When one does not feel like a militant or a politician. When one can no longer stand divisive thoughts and the lack of nuance. Christiane opens the door to another path: that of a gentle resistance, another way to "take to the maquis," as she says. Not to feed the maelstrom of violence and fear, not to despair of the world and dare to believe in it still. Despite the immensity and the madness of the task, to invent 1000 ways to revive the part of hope that is within us. The actress Anne Beaupain has challenged herself to contribute her stone to the edifice with the tools that are hers. Words. Movement and song. To be a ferryman, for the time of a show, with you as witnesses. And who knows, you might come out of it reinvigorated!
