Description

"On stage, a grand ritual of divination and healing unfolds, to reconnect with lost memories and chart the paths to our future. And at the origin of these oracles, between past, present, and future, lies a vision: that of the Sibyls. Mythological figures, alternately priestesses of Apollo and intercessors between humans and the Underworld, the Sibyls, with their song and their ability to read the future, cross shores and worlds.

But who are they for us today? And what oracles can they still deliver to us? The La Tempête company explores their mysteries by blending pieces by Monteverdi, traditional music from the Mediterranean basin, contemporary scores from Xenakis to Arperghis, and a creation by Zad Moultaka. Thirteen performers sing, dance, act, and declaim, opening a space of collective dreaming on the theater stage."
