Show | "Souvent raison" + "Mobilisation générale"

7:00 pm: "Often right" by Claude Delrieu and Jean-Marie Champagne > 13 songs for visionary development and authentic leadership!
We're not in consensus for consensus's sake, without being in conflict for conflict's sake, and at the same time we're not in respectful for respectful's sake!
This is a duet of contemporary songs, inspired by the managerial argumentation used by an international e-commerce giant for its employees. The songs celebrate, with joy and self-sacrifice, the ever-renewed ingenuity of this philanthropic behemoth in encouraging each of its employees - from the brilliant IT developer to the talented warehouse worker - to transform themselves, thanks to skilfully orchestrated free competition within the company, into "LEADERS", and thus enter into incessant and exacerbated competition with all the staff in the department in which they deploy their precious know-how...!
An intense Delrieu/Champagne frenzy!
8:00 pm: Dinner
9:30 pm: "Mobilisation générale" by the Arène Théâtre workshop > They're eleven, twelve, thirteen years old, and they tell the story of the war and the occupation, as they see it, as you experience it when you're a child.
Eighty years later, we are plunged with modesty into a period that continues to question us about human beings, their rare strengths and infinite cowardice, the possibility of their baseness and their inclination to perpetrate the unspeakable.
No lessons, no judgments, just the facts told and played out with the innocence of those who don't fully understand the actions of adults. Those who watch this great horrific carnival and are carried away by a flood of sensations, images and sounds; who retain only snatches of this terrible reality.
They play with the truth of children's games, dressing up, playing the clown, the party and the war with the same sincerity.
They're sometimes comical, often funny, but they don't shy away from violence and tears. It's a kick in the ass for rancid, narrow-minded France, Petainist France, France du bénitier, anti-Semitic France, France collabo.
The old joyous tunes of the time come back in counterpoint... It's insane what we could sing under the occupation while we were being deported!
