Inconditionnelles (Hopelessly Devoted)
"Unconditional" is acceptance and submission with no strings attached, but also commitment without reserve, what is taken, suffered, but also what is given, absolutely...
Inconditionnelles (Hopelessly Devoted) celebrates love. Love that blinds, degrades and locks you up. The love of two women, Chess and Serena, that is so powerful it creates that perfect space where "nothing is missing". In this play by Kae Tempest, there is what is outside and what is inside, the prison world and the other side, with its promises, its dangers and its possible failures. And then a third space, the inner life. And it is from the porosity of these spaces that beauty and the poetic act emerge. Finally, Dan Carey's music fills the prison universe. It is music that forms the basis of friendship, the secret language between two women that ultimately seals the community.
• Choreographer, artistic director, author and musician Dorothée Munyaneza (°Kigali, 1982) is developing a fiery body of work. By taking hold of memory and the body, she starts from reality and carries the voices of those who are silenced, to make the silences heard and to see the scars of History. Munyaneza recently performed at the Kaaitheater with Mailles, and Toi, Moi, Tituba.
