An exceptional evening. Three shows seen Tuesday evening and which, each in their own particular way, approach with intelligence and power a dark episode from our past. In Somewhere ElseSlovenian Tin Grabnar evokes the Balkan War through a blackboard. In Viva!the Franco-Spanish duo Lisa Peyron-Daniel Olmos shows the intimate damage of the civil war with office equipment. Finally, in Letters from my father, the very great Agnès Limbos represents herself at 8 years old in a red psychoanalyst chair to capture the resonances of the Belgian colonization of the Congo.
