“We like colorful, funny and committed characters”

“La Veuve is a humorous and militant drag, she corresponds to the spirit of the collective. It’s important that someone knows how to run the evening, and for that, we always look in cabaret circles. Because we like colorful, funny and committed characters,” says Elsa Fanton of Andon, recalling that “underneath the glitter, there is rage.”

Militant and uninhibited

This Saturday, the collective therefore hired activist and uninhibited artists. The only watchword: make people dance. “There will be Akira and Le Sabbat, which is part of a new somewhat queer, rock scene, a real group on stage, electro rock,” adds Aymeric Monsegur (also director and programmer of the Bordeaux Rock association ). The public comes to see the concerts. »

In partnership with the Wow Festival, Camion bip-bip is also out. “Their hit ”Ouin Ouin” sets the tone, laughs Mélanie Jan. Then, it’s time for the artistic collective DivinO, more Latin in sound, reggaeton dance hall style, with dancers from all backgrounds. This ball is also an opportunity to raise awareness of the risks of attacks: this year, we have organized everything so that spectators do not leave alone. It’s more secure. We have provided a transformation space to put on makeup, change and leave incognito. » The Girofard association will also be present.
