Theater: "Mokhtar goes to Paris for the papers"

  • Theater: "Mokhtar goes to Paris for the papers"

    With Mokhtar va chercher les papiers à Paris, theater becomes a sensitive and necessary space for speech. Alone on stage, Michel Côme gives voice to a man on the move, caught between two countries, two realities, two ways of existing. The story unfolds like an inner journey, made up of departures, doubts, hopes and confrontations, where exile is never abstract but profoundly human.

    The play questions with finesse the reasons for leaving one's country, the obstacles encountered once elsewhere, and how to live this reality without giving up either intelligence or the heart. Between gravity and lightness, the text avoids shortcuts and simplistic rhetoric to offer an embodied, lucid and profoundly topical reflection.

    With its straightforward writing and lively performance, the show invites audiences to take a fresh look at migration routes, to listen to the stories behind the words, and to be touched by the sincerity of the words, without naivety or fear. A committed, intimate and universal theatrical proposition that resonates long after the last word has been spoken.


    Liesel's advice

    An intimate, engaging theatrical tale of departure, exile and the courage to face the unknown. Alone on stage, Michel Côme aptly explores the choices, flaws and humanity behind each journey.
