Emma Dante is directing her latest play, Misericordia, at the National Popular Theater.
Three prostitutes together raise a disabled child, this is the starting point of the new creation of Emma Dante, the enfant terrible of Avignon, always starting from a documentary work around her region, Sicily.
Precarious, flamboyant, colorful, his art goes back to the roots of the theater as of his country to better exult on stage, always with invention and energy. On stage, the bodies dance, delirium and rear up against their fate. We haven’t seen that show, but Emma Dante is always worth a visit for anyone who likes to be shaken up.
Mercy by Emma Dante. From Wednesday 10 to Saturday 20 November at 8:30 p.m. (Thu 8 p.m.) at the TNP in Villeurbanne, small theater Salle Jean-Bouise. From 20 to 25 €. tnp-villeurbanne.com
