FESTIVAL D’AVIGNON | 2024
Since its creation, Making Waves has endeavored to make audible the voices and words of a youth steeped in questions, doubts, aspirations and hopes. A heterogeneous and complex youth, in touch with the world’s disorders, full of expectations and contradictions. A daring and precarious youth, indocile and vulnerable.
What better place than a major theater festival to put down our microphones and allow young adults to question the world? By giving thirteen young people from the Vaucluse, Bas-Rhin, Savoie and Seine-Saint-Denis regions, all from very different backgrounds, the possibility of dialoguing with directors and actors, elected representatives and activists, academics and associations, we intend to give them the opportunity to express their views and feelings about where the world is heading. By creating a radio that aims to be a space for singular words and interactions, for unexpected exchanges and conversations, a radio where people who seem so far apart meet and talk to each other, Making Waves hopes to open up new interstices and create new relationships. The aim is to bring out new forms of solidarity and sharing, and to highlight what binds us together, touches us and animates us collectively, against all that apparently separates and divides us.
