THEATRE : ACT OR FOREVER HOLD YOUR PEACE

THEATRE - ACT OR FOREVER HOLD YOUR PEACE. I love theatre! I do! I love it so much that I spell the word theater the British way because it reminds me of the French spelling. I miss the West End like I miss champagne. But I have a confession to make: I hate reading plays. Don't tell that to my friends! The worst thing is, I write plays, but I hate to read them. I pretend I have read some classics because I studied classical theatre, but I really have no idea of what I'm talking about. I haven't read all the plays by Shakespeare even though I worship Shakespeare, and I studied at the RSC Summer School. I indulge in the thought that I have read all the plays by Oscar Wilde, because he is my idol, but I'm pretty sure I didn't read the Duchess of Padua, I just conveniently convinced myself I did because I saw the movie version. I almost quit acting school when we had to spend one full year on Chekhov. I couldn't stomach it. I remember reading all his plays in ...

The tree does not judge - L'arbre ne juge pas Bilingual

L'arbre ne juge pas Il étire ses branches Donne de l'ombre, L'infinie bonté de son oxygène. L'arbre ne juge pas Le corps qui pousse vers le haut, ses espoirs et sa tête Alanguie, ou tendue Vers la perfection Rencontre son baiser. L'arbre t'accepte.

L'arbre ne juge pas, Et quand tu broies son essence Et la change en papier. L'arbre ne demande que la pitié de ton talent Couché sur une feuille vierge. The tree does not judge It stretches its branches Provides shade, The infinite goodness of its oxygen. The tree does not judge The growing body sends upwards its hopes and its head. The head whether languid or tending Towards perfection, Meets its kiss. The tree ...

I want to enter people's homes through the door of their souls. ( English Version of Je veux rentrer chez les gens par la porte de leur âme.)

I want to enter people's homes through the door of their souls. -         Knock, knock! -         Who’s there? An adventuress who has lost her bearings and her compass seeking a moment of respite to update her emotional orientation. Do not leave me on the landing, for I see a ray of your light peeking through the door frame of your inner being. It's cold outside, in the ice of conventions that pierces me to the bone. I shiver in my person’s skin, in my woman’s skin, painted with make-up, tired. My wrinkles are grooves dug by the tears I never wept. Out of politeness, I swallow them back. Their salt on my tongue reminds me that I am alive and that I can satiate my belly with my pain. Let me lay down my burden of overly polite hellos, strip myself of my appearances, wash away my fears, before entering the realm of your being. I am tired of discerning your presence through screens, in front of which you surreptitiously see the image...
