Join us on November 19 at 8:30pm at the Saint-Lô theater for "Une opérette à RAVENSBRÜCK" by Germaine Tillion with the Nosferatu company.
How to defy evil with laughter. Resist by writing, sing in the face of Nazi jailers to defend your dignity. This was Germaine Tillion?s way of surviving the Ravensbrück camp in 1944. In this music-hall-style text, the Ravensbrück deportees are described and harangued in turn by a strange naturalist, before slipping away. Invoking memories of popular tunes and the joyous feasts of yesteryear, these women fight their inhuman condition with the most formidable of weapons: joie de vivre. Une Opérette à Ravensbrück gives us an opportunity to see and hear the humanity and fraternity that were maintained in the camps, despite the horror.
"Audiences come away staring wide awake, smiling and, for some, including me, with wet eyes, who knows why. An astonishing and captivating show. A must-see" Spectatif, Frédérique Pérez
