Medea is a very ancient text
But the first time I read it I was touched in a particular place as a woman
But the first time I read it I was touched in a particular place as a woman
I felt there was a bit of Medea in all women. This is what has inspired me to work on Medea
Feminity is present a lot in this play. An other thing that touched me was the Children. I asked myself:
"How parents can be as selfish and proud to come to kill " As if they killed a part of themselves.
As if they killed a part of themselves. It particularly spoke to me and I wanted to tell this story through Medea.
It says something universal that can affect all human being. It touched me in any case, it even surprised me!
We chose the translation of Florence Dupont which is a fairly immediate fluid and contemporary translation.
For the team, it was not sure at first, we thought "Medea? who wants to play a tragedy in 2014?"
In fact we were very surprised ! It was a process of open auditions, we saw about 60 actors.

We met great actors, great people and the director chose the ones he wanted to stage and which corresponded to the show.
Medea is hosted by the Compagny "Les Mômes"
I needed to create out of the school. It was necessary for me because I needed a place where I could create things in the theater.
I wanted to be an entrepreneur, to lead and create a team to be free to create and play.
Why I called it "Les Mômes"? :) Because
Because... the first thing that came to mind when I think of what is it to be an actor and to play?
and looking for that little thing of childhood, it seemed to me quite natural to call it that way.
It can be very interesting to revisit the myth of Medea by influencing it by all different artists' cultures. It happens that I am Moroccan, there is an actor who has Algerian origins.
All these different cultures will find themselves in the Medea project,
including the music, but I can not tell you more, you will see;)
Today we are rehearsing. We started rehearsals late September. This is a project that has great potential.
We are very lucky to be welcomed at the "Studio Des Arts Vivants" Theatre in February 2014 in Casablanca-Morrocco
All the team is going there during 10 days to create and build the project
This project will be of course with all the hard work,the love we will put into it, but also thanks to you!
We need funding for designs, for costumes, for housing actors. We ask you, please
if you like the project, if you want to help young actors, a young compagny.
Help us make this project exist.
