Show | Dinner + "Jubilä"

7:00 pm: welcome
7:30 pm: dinner
9:00 pm: "Jubilä", solo for multi-timbral vocalist (ages 10 and up) > "My voice is an archipelago. I'm all ages, speak all languages and tell stories without words. The voice is made by singing. So I sing to see. But what am I singing?"

Singular and multiple, Leïla Martial visits her inner territories and exhumes their spirits. Alone on stage in her nymph dress and misty crown, ancient and playful creature at once, clown-child and lyrical woman, she brings her worlds together. She invokes Bach in the neck of a mignonette, celebrates the child she won't have, vibrates to her toy piano on buried memories, switches from French to English and Spanish or to one of those crazy languages she's got a secret for. She explodes in volutes of unimaginable imaginary timbres, punctuated by droll confessions about playing Bach, tuning instruments in 440 and other subjects taken on the fly.
As a virtuoso musician and vocalist, Leïla plunges us into a bath of emotions with a rare spontaneity. The most sincere compunction and the most mischievous derision rub shoulders in this show, as if we'd thought they were opposites until now. Not to be missed!
