Poisson d’avril

Solo by Aïda Boudrigua - created in 2012

Poisson d’avril – ‘When you lose your father on 1 April, all the fish from your childhood rise to the surface, clinging to your back and wriggling so much that there’s only one thing you can do to get rid of them: dance. Dance the absence, dance the collective memory, dance who you are, dance the living and the dead, dance what life has made of you.
