This year’s play is built on the idea that women who write live dangerously. We see performed literary excerpts from these women writers: Marie de France (12e), Christine de Pisan (1363-1434), Marguerite de Navarre (1492-1549), Madame de Lafayette (1634-1693), Madame de Sévigné (1626-1696), Olympe de Gouges (1748-1793), Camille Claudel (1864-1943), Colette (1873-1954), Marguerite Duras (1914-1996), and Fatou Diome (1968-). Their writings were chosen in particular because they reflect on writing as a form of strength and survival. The performance lasts 50 minutes, is in French, and includes a program with short bios of each author as well as key words to consider in the pieces performed. |
