SUMMARY:Ida
DESCRIPTION:This show is our ultimate way of expressing homesickness\, and also to think of all the people who have disappeared\, cities burned and women lost.\n\n\n“Ida Ô Ida Ô Ida Ô Ida. Ida has always cradled me and the other man in me. And with her\, we experienced many crossings\, many oceans\, many hotel rooms\, many public squares\, many cane fields\, many escapades\, many hot nights. But the streets were always our favorite. What will the streets say when they know our country is surrounded by water but still can’t swim?” IDA is an interrupted\, sensitive song\, all voice and echo\, which paints a hallucinatory picture of its third island\, where man\, drawn into a spiral of self-destruction\, turns out to be the gravedigger of his own utopia. This text explains the story of a man who grew up in the neighborhoods of Port-au-Prince\, exploring almost every corner of the capital.  This sad\, desperate man\, who lived in Port-au-Prince with his wife\, used her as an alibi to talk about his country’s pain. He took the opportunity to denounce the behavior of our leaders\, who took advantage of their supremacy to plunder the state coffers while the majority of the population starved. Ida is a void in the heart of this despair in a city that is timidly disappearing\, where each of us has left our footprints\, our history\, our mad laughter and our most mysterious moments in life. Port-au-Prince\, Haiti’s capital\, now turned to fire and ashes. How many cities have disappeared like Port-au-Prince in bloody nights? This text was written by Guy Junior Régis and published in 2016. Was an X-ray of the city of Port-au-Prince and all those around it. Its staging has been presented several times in Port-au-Prince\, France with different actors.        Personally\, I presented this text as part of the Rencontres Littéraires en Haïti festival\, at the Deschapelles community library\, the Centre Culturel Maurice Cadet in Delmas and the Centre Culturel Jhon Blair in Jérémie. “I was young\, angry”\, he (Guy Régis Jr) recalls of Ida.  Yet the violent\, insalubrious Port-au-Prince he described at the age of 23\, where people starve and no longer think of dreaming\, would still be the Port-au-Prince of today in the eyes of this polymorphous 39-year-old artist. In Ida\, shouted rather than reflected\, he depicts\, in an incisive\, concise and violent style\, the destiny of a man whose love for a woman\, Ida\, fills him with hope in a country he no longer believes in. We’re in Port-au-Prince. An obscure city.    It’s still on your tongue\, Ida\, the word of hope that will rekindle the day in my life.   \nThis show is our ultimate way of expressing homesickness and also thinking of all the people lost\, towns burned and women lost. In the end\, it’s a way of saying that there’s still hope if we all pull together.  \nBell

SUMMARY:The ten black men
DESCRIPTION:Reading of “Les dix hommes noirs” by Étzer Vilaire by Collectif Mise au point with Rodlin Christolin\n\n\nIn Les Dix Hommes noirs\, Étzer Vilaire questions the human condition head-on. \nthrough ten male figures confronted with social violence\, feelings of erasure and the need for dignity. Each embodies a way of fighting\, of holding on\, of staying alive in a context marked by exclusion and post-colonial heritage. This performance-reading takes the form of a narrative that draws on the polyphonic force of the work. Each man becomes a singular voice\, the bearer of an experience\, an inner conflict\, a way of resisting or resigning. Together\, they form a fragile yet powerful chorus\, revealing the tensions between identity\, survival and hope in a society that marginalizes and assigns.     \nCollectif mise au point

SUMMARY:Antigone
DESCRIPTION:“Antigone\,” a play written by Felix Morissea-Leroy / “Antigone\,” an adaptation by Felix Morissea-Leroy\n\n\nAntigòn Feliks Miriso Lewa \n“Antigone” is a Creole adaptation of Sophocles’ play by Félix Moriso Lewa\, a leading figure in Haitian theater. He transplanted the Greek myth into the rich soil of Haitian culture to give the story another dimension and make it accessible to the Creole audience.After a great war\, Antigone’s brothers\, Eteocles and Polynices\, killed one another. The Creoles decided to hold an official funeral for only one of them\, while he insisted on burying the other as well\, because\, to him\, it would have been a betrayal.Antigone\, who refused to accept this decision—which she deemed unjust and unfair—braved the danger and buried her brother. This act came to be regarded as an act of rebellion against the ruling authorities.Despite all his wise and mysterious advisors\, the king refused to listen to him.This stubbornness led him far astray\, until he killed a group of people\, including Antigone\, her fiancé\, her young son Emon\, and even his own wife. Unfortunately\, he failed to see how his actions were plunging the country into too much turmoil.In this adaptation\, Feliks Moriso Lewa transforms a universal fable into a profound reflection on justice\, freedom\, and human dignity\, as well as a conflict between law and conscience.   \n \n*Antigone* by Félix Morisseau-Leroy \n*Antigòn* is a Haitian Creole adaptation of Sophocles’ tragedy *Antigone*\, written by Félix Morisseau-Leroy\, a leading figure in Haitian literature and theater.The author transposes the Greek myth into a world inspired by Haitian culture\, giving the work new power by making it accessible to Creole-speaking audiences.After a fratricidal war\, Antigòn’s two brothers\, Eteyoklès and Polinis\, die after killing each other. The new ruler\, Kreyon\, decides to honor one of the brothers with an official funeral\, while forbidding\, on pain of death\, that the other be buried\, declaring him a traitor to the nation.Refusing to submit to a law she considers unjust\, Antigone defies the ban and performs her brother’s funeral rites. Her action becomes an act of resistance against the arbitrary exercise of power. Despite the pleas of her loved ones and the warnings of the elders\, Kreyon remains unyielding. This obstinacy triggers a series of tragedies that lead to Antigòn’s death\, then to that of her fiancé Emon\, the king’s son\, and finally to that of the king’s wife. Too late\, Kreyon realizes that his compassionless authority has led to his own downfall. Through this adaptation\, Félix Morisseau-Leroy transforms a universal tragedy into a profoundly Haitian reflection on justice\, freedom\, human dignity\, and the conflict between the laws of men and the laws of conscience.
