La Situation Poétique en Amérique
4 – 26 July 2025 at 20h
No performance : 8, 15 and 22 July
Théâtre de l'Adresse « Diffusion », 2 avenue de la Trillade, Avignon
The Poetic Situation in America since Alexandre Dumas and a few others. Eleven actors, musicians and singers from Iran, Syria, Brazil and France come together to tell of exile, memory and dreams. Inspired by a rare text by William Saroyan mixing humour, surrealism and melancholy, the play evokes 1930s America: anonymous migrants, starving lovers, lost children wandering between hostility and romance. In the face of today’s rhetoric of exclusion and fear of others, the play celebrates cultural diversity and the strength of the group. An act of poetic resistance in a divided world. Come and dream with us!
