J’ai pleuré ce matin dans le métroAbout
At the equilateral intersection of mind, gut, and heart, J’ai pleuré ce matin dans le métro is a mourning, an ode to courage, and a cathartic celebration of madness—the gentle kind of madness from which so much beauty can emerge. All it needs is to be given a chance.
The work came to life as part of an intensive four-week summer program with 23 amateur and emerging performers. It was presented over three evenings at QUAI 5160 – Maison de la culture de Verdun.
