Mon actrice(s) principale(s)

Once upon a time, there was a mother and her son, Ouria and Libellule. Between the two of them, few words are exchanged, until the day the son proposes to his mother that she become his lead actress. Ouria will be the heroine of his film, his barefoot princess. Through theater and cinema brought together, the conversation begins, and words pour forth.

Words that carry an intimate history too long kept in silence, a story between France and Algeria, that of May 8, 1945 and the massacres of Sétif and Guelma. The lead actress of this show is also the language, as in all plays by Lazare, the language of tales and the imagination, the one that whisks us away to the land of Ava Gardner or perhaps onto a canvas by Van Gogh, the language that consoles and, playing with fiction, takes us beyond the bounds of programmed assignments.

To embody this fable tinged with humor and wonder, Lazare surrounds himself with two faithful companions of the road, actress Anne Baudoux and musician-actor Mourad Musset. Together they will retrace a life of theater, in an explosive epic, brimming with music, raw poetry, and friendship.
