Theatre: La Traversée en pirogue by the Compagnie sans N

Indigenous peoples plays by the Compagnie sans N. Temporary exhibition. Saturday 21 May at 6.30 pm, 7.30 pm, 8.30 pm, 9.30 pm and 10.30 pm.

The MEG commissioned the Compagnie sans N to stage four plays written by indigenous playwrights. These texts deal with the climate emergency and the environmental injustice they suffer.

To prepare the show, the company carried out an artistic residency at MEG in February, within the temporary exhibition "Environmental Injustice - Indigenous Alternatives".

The company's proposal is a play entitled "La traversée en pirogue" which you will be able to discover on the occasion of the Museum Night.

"La traversée en pirogue" is made up of 4 short plays that will be performed separately in different areas of the temporary exhibition (duration: 15 minutes approximately) at 6.30 pm, 7.30 pm, 8.30 pm and 9.30 pm.

At 10:30 pm, the entire play will be performed in the mediation space (duration: about 1 hour).

The plays will be performed in French.
