Liste des enfants dévorés par les loups

Théâtre la Seizième

In this abrasive piece, developed through the artistic incubator, Caroline Bélisle explores the entanglements between femininity and guilt. Two women probe the traumas of childhood memories, and the buried impulses that appear, inescapably, after giving birth. As dramatic as it is funny, Liste des enfants dévorés par les loups (List of Children Devoured by the Wolves) depicts the paralyzing anxiety of our times… with bite.
