Rebecca Chaillon's 'La parabole du seum' at Avignon Festival

At the 2026 Festival d'Avignon, Rebecca Chaillon presents 'La parabole du seum' in the In program, a work blending text, performance, images, and sound creation that transforms anger into a political and poetic fable, addressing the rise of fascisms. Tatiana Seguin performs 'Descendante De Combattantes' in the Off program at Chapelle du verbe incarné, highlighting Black women who marked history and her personal story. Both productions interrogate memory, heritage, and forms of resistance through theater. Additionally, Maxime Grember introduces 'Quand on dort, on n'a pas faim' by Anthony Martine at Théâtre de la Manufacture, an Afro-queer medieval tale at the crossroads of cabaret and performance.
