Qu’avez vous fait de la maison ?

Africa premiere
Performance in French

By François Sauveur
Belgium

« Qu’avez-vous fait de la maison” (What Have You Done with the House) is a raw musical expression that questions the inequalities and the destruction of « living beings, » consequences of the reign of the dogmatic neo-liberal ideology and the unlimited power granted to Financial Markets.

 

Between a concert, a gestural lecture, and a performative monologue, this play is an « open letter to the economic gurus who take us for fools. » It is an attempt to break free from a sense of powerlessness in the face of the one-sided discourse of the « established power, » as well as our bewilderment at the colossal profits made beyond any morality by a small minority, to the detriment of the collective’s well-being.
