PREAMBLE

Two notes as a preamble to the 2015 theme
Performance and Possession

1 - from the 2013 SPIRIT(s) Festival archive:

In 334 BC rumour had it that a statue of Orpheus in Pieria, Macedonia, was found drenched in sweat. For the soothsayer Aristander of Telmessos, the prodigy predicted that poets and singers would have to sweat heavily in order to comment and celebrate the achievements of the new-born prince: Alexander the Great.

The 20th century should now close its balance sheet - particularly regarding the results of its scientistic skepticism.

We have to bring back Orpheus for a radical review of the nature and imp-act of SPIRIT(s) - I mean the frontiers of spirituality, psyche, imagination, emotions, dreams. In other words: fiction and theatre as laboratories of thought: SPIRIT(s). Given the residual resistance, we will have to "wet the shirt"!

2 - The Paris Charlie offices were a few hundred meters from the DTM studios where Pantheatre works. My position is the following::

I am Charlie
Religions begin where humour stops.
Religions stop where culture begins.
Religions are part of one of the most brilliant inventions of mankind: mythology, ie fiction.
