MIREVAL
Romain and Sabah are 9 years old. They’re neighbors and both loners. He gallops on his wooden horse, she hunts buffalo as a Sioux warrior. Their meeting gives rise to the incredible and the wonderful. But their parents brutally oppose their budding love. F. Melquiot’s intuitive words, told from a child’s point of view, offer a contemporary echo of Romeo and Juliet.This funny, sensitive text delicately confronts us with the issues of racism and love of the other.With Aïda Hamri and Simon ChaillouDirection and dramaturgy: Nathalie DutourAge 8 and upAuthor: Fabrice MelquiotGrand Prix de littérature dramatique jeunesse 2018, Laureate of the Prix Armand Gatti 2019
