Boys Don’t Cry

Boys do not cry is a young public piece built on the basis of a text by Chantal Thomas, written especially for the piece, around an unlikely football game, playground and dance.

This is a pretext for a nostalgic, funny and tender reflection on what it is to dance when you are a boy, moreover when you come from North Africa and an Arab world.

It will be a question of fighting some clichés of a world where it would be “sewing for girls and football for boys”.

A tender and nostalgic look back at a childhood where the predestined way is not always the desired one.

A dance for oneself, an ode to the family, a statement of the heart, an understanding of love.
