This text of "Death" has the power of a dramatic "Cante Jondo", carried here by original music. "The power of intertwined writing and music" (A. de Broca, J-Y. Pénafiel).
Le Mort, by Georges Bataille
"An emptiness arose in her that lifted her like an angel."

Forty years after the premiere of Georges Bataille's Le Mort, Anne de Broca returns to this powerful work, traversed by the sacred, transgression, eroticism and death, in a musical reading with Jean-Yves Pénafiel and Charlie Moine on lighting.

Between stormy night, wake and Way of the Cross, this creation blends theater, voice and music in an intense, poetic journey.

Anne de Broca, actress, director and singer, has been developing a theater of ritual and commitment for over forty years.
Jean-Yves Pénafiel, actor, singer and voice teacher, accompanies this reading with a vocal and musical presence nurtured by a long artistic partnership with her.
