Overview
In the beginning there were these words, flung out like a safety valve by the writer Ovidie, who had volunteered to join a sex strike.
Then this cry of exasperation became a rallying cry for many women just as weary. Today, this hard-hitting text is brought to the stage by an actress who, for her part, does not mince her words either.
And when Anna Mouglalis raises her voice, it hits hard! With ferocious humour, she takes to task the heterosexual model that encases romantic relationships in order all the better to torpedo them. We take her anger full in the face, somewhat dazed: there are lashes of the whip that wake you up.
Text by Ovidie, published by Julliard
Adaptation and direction by Ovidie
With Anna Mouglalis
Warning to the audience: so that everyone can attend the show with full awareness, we inform you that the play deals with themes linked to sexuality and sexual violence. Recommended for ages 16 and over.
