The Entonnoir Th\u00e9\u00e2tre proposes to the young people of Kourou to emancipate themselves and find their place thanks to the theater.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
For the past 12 years, the funnel theater has offered young people every year to participate in the experience Living and Saying one’s neighborhood and to create a show. This year’s theme was heroism, the place of women, racism and role models.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n All the texts but also the dances and songs were imagined by the young people.<\/p>\n\n\n\n They were more than 80, aged 11 to 25, from all Kalina, Bushingu\u00e9, Saramaca origins, from all walks of life and met six times a week from October 15 to December 15 to create a show My hero, your herald<\/em> with the collaboration of Karim Troussi and Emilie Mallosse.<\/p>\n\n\n\n After 110 hours of rehearsal, always masked and respectful of barrier gestures, they performed their show 10 times in 7 different locations in Kourou and Cayenne.<\/p>\n\n\n\n For the young people participating in an artistic integration program, it was also a professional experience since they were also responsible for the make-up, the stage management and the costumes.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n But above all, thanks to the theater, they were able to transmit their messages, their emotions and “make the body convey what the voice could not always say”.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n This show is their show. Everyone brought their own words, their own ideas, starting with the title.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Never could they have imagined one day being a hero, a heroine and playing in front of an audience in a theatre like l’Encre \u00e0 Cayenne and even several times a day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n This is the magic of the Entonnoir Th\u00e9\u00e2tre: freeing speech, bringing confidence, creating a collective and finding one’s way \u2026<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n To these young people but also to these everyday heroines like these 9 unemployed mothers from Surinam, Brazil or Haiti who were following a Red Cross training course led by Joseph Petererson of the Funnel Theater.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Through role-playing games, they have regained their self-confidence and now have professional projects other than the job of cleaning lady.<\/p>\n\n\n\n They know that it will be a long road, but they are ready to overcome the obstacles and assert themselves as women. A woman who must above all be respected.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n They say it loud and clear through the scenes they imagine about domestic violence in the home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n This is the first time they have spoken out in public on this subject.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Art therapy, social theater; these women or young people in difficulty can finally say words, and use their voice to better find their place in society.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Credit: Anne Pastor<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" The Entonnoir Th\u00e9\u00e2tre proposes to the young people of Kourou to emancipate themselves and find their place thanks to the theater.
