Theatre: 'Au Temps béni des colonies'

9 November 2024 - Passersstraat 5, 1070 Anderlecht

Language of play: French.

'Au Temps béni des colonies' by Zoubida MOUHSSIN aims to shed light on the 44 years of French colonization endured by Morocco. To achieve this, two voices intertwine: the voice of "History" and that of a Moroccan woman born at the end of the 19th century.

They will tell you about occupied Morocco, but also about how the colonizer, to attract soldiers and settlers, created a fantasized representation of the Moroccan/Eastern woman, suggesting that her body was offered and submissive.
