Creation as part of Vive le sujet ! Tentatives - collaboration between Festival IN d’Avignon and SACD.
Auguste’s secret dream is to one day be a singer in a band - it’s one of the reasons why he turned to Alex, the singer of punk duo SIKSA. Together they create What will remain secret : a subterranean invocation reanimating the secrets of the playground, those that lurk at the edge of the ears where they were uttered, just beneath the skin they made tingle or between the patches of earth in which they were buried.
Auguste and Alex no longer bear the first names they were given at birth. In What will remain secret, they invite their inner child, the ones who no longer bear their names, to (re)enchant/infant their bodies. They sing to stir up memories, and dance to build huts for them to rest in.
