Macbe.ttes

In the beginning, a rallying song... In the beyond of the world, the Weird Sisters gather... They have traveled through Time and the millennial war waged by men at the expense of life itself. They know the madness and cruelty of the powerful, the endless bloodthirsty refrain of the thirst for power. Along with children, they have always been its first victims...

How can this infernal cycle of perpetuating violence be broken? Denounce, testify, recount... Use theater to open eyes and minds... For you, they will summon Shakespeare and recount in 1H15 the story of Macbeth, that virtuous general who succumbed to crime through ambition and sank into madness...

Eight women, eight actresses, to tell what men are capable of doing to achieve and hold power, "deeds without a name". They take on the male characters of Shakespeare's play to become in turn Macbeth, Banquo, Duncan, Macduff, Malcolm, the Porter of Hell...

In women's mouths, men's words resonate, are heard, and reveal themselves differently... Their words suddenly become audible with their full and hidden underground intentions, grounded in age-old, virilistic, and predatory base instincts... Complete clarity for a shock of consciousness and one question: When will you stop?

"I have given suck, and know how tender 'tis to love the babe that milks me". What if we reversed the roles and let the poet become the spokesperson for the violence endured by those who have suffered war since the dawn of time? The very ones who are sensitive, fragile, guardians of Life?

Answer their call and witness the tale of Macbeth with which they play... A cruel tale overflowing with love for humanity...
