ON THE PROGRAMME :
Born in the Vendée, Béatrice studied literature in Poitiers, then Paris and finally Dublin. For Jedi Avant Dredi, Béatrice will be YOUR heroine!
This show came about by accident: a commission for an adaptation of Molière (which fell through); a residency at the Théâtre de Fontainebleau (to be honoured); a performance date (announced): 10 November 2022; sometimes life gives you the opportunity to get creative.
In the space of a month, the theme of heroines – Molière’s heroines, but also those of yesterday and today, of fiction and real life, and above all the notions of freedom, creativity and a femininity that goes against the grain – has clearly taken shape.
Heroine :
1 – A woman who demonstrates exceptional virtues, who devotes herself to a cause.
2 – Main female character in a work or adventure
3 – Drug and narcotic derived from morphine
I’m interested in heroines because, at the age of 41, they reconcile me with femininity and the feminine…
Feminine: Of woman; which is proper to woman
Well, that’s where the problem starts for me… What is unique to women?
If you read Femme actuelle, women are soft, delicate, weak, lacy, nail polish, resigned, inferior, silent, discreet, moody, hysterical…
Shit, I’m not a woman then! What I’ve been told is that being a woman is synonymous with Strength, Power, Energy, Intelligence, Complementarity, Self-confidence, Pleasure, Freedom and Fun.
Or maybe it’s the ‘woman’s thing’ that’s not so womanly…
For a while I thought I was alone in the world with my feelings as a woman… When I was a teenager, I even started to get angry with other people, with women, and that lasted for a loooooong time. I got a big bashing from a group of chicks. Nobody spoke to me any more…
Sorority? How do you spell that? Ok, from now on I’ll be wary of women and I’ll join the men’s clan… my equals… Misogynist… that’s it, I’ve become a misogynist… and supposedly a bit ‘masculine’. I lived my life as a free and solitary woman, without a group of girlfriends, for twenty years…
And then I got pregnant… With a little girl… ah… Ok, I got the message, Destiny, I’m going to work on it…
And then, as if that wasn’t enough, my femininity came crashing down on me at the age of 39 with a little breast cancer…
All right, go ahead and blow up the sisters. My first Heroines were my cancer buddies… sisterhood, benevolence, the Boobs Community welcomed me. That’s it, I’ve joined a crew of chicks, and I’ve finally discovered what female solidarity is all about…
And then that story tickled me… I’m sure I’m not the only one who’s grown in my own corner with strength and freedom… and then I looked at heroines, in real life and in fiction, and I stopped being alone.
The Célimène, the Christiane Taubira, the Carmen, the Delphine Horvilleur, the Béatrice Dalle, the Audrey Hepburn, the Frida Kahlo, the Josephine Baker, the Rihanna, I find in them the femininity that I was brought up with: Freedom, Creativity, Confidence. Except that the best part is not being a heroine… it’s being an anti-heroine…
