Musical Theater: "Where I'm afraid, I'll go"

Anne Sylvestre has often been reduced to her fairy tales, her children's songs. Yet, she is one of the greatest singer-songwriters of the 20th century. A pen and a voice that tell stories of love, wars, couples, women, lives like ours. This creation, blending previously unpublished texts and the composer's songs, is as much a slap in the face as an outstretched hand, shaking and reconciling, sparkling with humor and humanity.
In a small bookstore with a bar and piano, three women learn of Anne Sylvestre's death. They each recall their own Anne, their encounter, their experience, their lives turned upside down by one of her melodies. They talk about her by talking about themselves—or perhaps it's the other way around: these life stories, whether conventional or unconventional, point to the essential connections between people. A man at the piano listens and accompanies them, in a musical frenzy combining acting and voice.
The company, founded in 2017, is dedicated to multidisciplinary creation and a theater of connection. Following Femmes parallèles (Parallel Women), presented at La Julienne in 2023, this latest project, centered on Anne Sylvestre, is the fifth installment in a cycle about women fighters and rebels.
